Subject:Authentic Xuande?

Hello, I am wondering if this is an authentic marking, thank you!

Ming Dynasty Xuande reign bronze work has had a very high reputation for quality.

So when a maker wants to imply high quality metal work, it is natural to add a mark for that reign.

Your photo does not make it possible to discern quality of metal form or casting, nor what metal might be involved. A mark alone does not indicate anything about whether any piece might be marked according to the period actually made. Anyone can put any mark on anything.
