Veritable Opaline de MuranoThe earliest labels were paper-based and shaped like a scroll, with black and red text on a gold background. The letter 'N' is on the left side (for 'Nason'?), and two 'ribbons' trail beneath this. Probably used from c.1970-85 |

V.Nason (Avventurina)Made from 1989 onwards. These vases and ornaments always carried a gold paper scroll-type label with AVVENTURINA written across with the Nason logo at each end. Underneath is the company name. |

V.Nason (rectangle)Uses the Nason logo prominently with the name alongside. Can be found as paper-based, in three different colours:
There are two plastic variants both with white text on clear, except one is a rounded rectangle and the other circular. |

V.Nason (circular)Probably the last incarnation, with the name written around the periphery. White text on clear plastic and no logo shown. |

L.NasonThe label style looks a lot older than it actually is, being elliptical with a scalloped edge and scroll text. The label is gilt text with a yellow background. However, these can only be dated to around 1980. |
