Depending on year of release it was either Columbia (pre 1910) or 
General Phonograph Corp. - otherwise known as OKeh  (c. mid 1920s). I 
would have said probably Pathe or ARCo because of the 11.5" size.
I would have been wrawng.

The label is light blue with gold and blue print.  The artist's name, Giacomo Lauri-Volpi, is hand written across the label below the center hole.
