both say basically the same thing, the silver one says "made during the Xuande reign of the Great Ming (dynasty)". The bronze-colored picture is upside down and says "made during the Xuande reign". Bronzes made at that time quickly became desirable for their reported high quality, so ever since nearly every other bronze vessel made (it seems like) has been cast with these markings.
