宣德年制,made in Xuande Emperor period. Xuande emperor, the 3rd emperor of Ming dynasty in China(they are 2 very short period emperors before Xuande, which are usually ignore or otherwise Xuande was the 5th emperor of Ming dynasty). Be very careful before purchasing any antique.

That is absolutely unwise to post only the mark of a piece without posting pictures of the complete piece and expect others to translate it for you. It serves no purpose whatsoever. The chance of your piece of being that of Ming dynasty is extremely low and without any pictures, nobody can be sure.
