Does anyone recognize this maker mark?

This mark reads down and across from the top right in Mandarin Chinese as "Ruo Shen Zhen Cang" (若深珍蔵), "From the Collection of the Seemingly Old". Can't tell what it is on, but it appears not to be very old, like another recently posted dish at the link. The mark was originally used on early Qing Kangxi (1662-1722) porcelain and has been much-copied since.

Best regards,

Bill H.

Thanks Bill,
The mark is on a miniature tea pot that I bought at an estate sale recently. I appreciate your help.
Regards, Brian
