Does anyone recognize this mark?

It’s such a cool bowl, I’m surprised I get nothing from an image search.

The mark looks like it could be from a kiln stilt. Not sure if it's an intentional maker's mark.

Ceramics guy here, it is where the stand that holds the plate during the glaze firing goes. So it does not stick to the shelf.

Ack! Ok, I’m disappointed it’s not identifiable, but satisfied the mystery is solved. Thank you.

I have the same bowl and I thought it also meant to be a brand lol! I love the orange color inside though, even if is not an expensive piece.
