Hi all. Have a small zitan wood stand with a mark I haven't seen before. Any help translating would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You have something missing here because this is only the wooden stand for probably a bronze tripod 鼎. Where is the tripod?

Hi. Thanks for your reply. I think the censer would have been cloisonne, and quite large given the size of this stand. Sadly I do not have this. The stand is however a nice example in Zitan. Do you have any ideas concerning the mark? It is one that I haven't seen before.

It is not really a mark but rather a description of the missing tripod:
