Does murano glass have a unique identification mark on its art?

I don’t believe that they have a mark in the actual glass, the way that a ceramic piece would, but I looked it up and found this: “Promovetro, the consortium of Glass Blowers in Venice is trying to stem the flood of counterfeit imports from Asia. New holographic stickers on the glass identifies which furnace made the item by using a numeric system. For more information on this initiative, visit their website for a list of member companies, and their identification numbers of each furnace. This new image is beginning to replace the gold foil oval “Made in Murano, Italy” familiar to so many.” I will reference the website below. I own several pieces from Venice, and none have any ID I can think of.
