Hi Mike - I reoriented your photo to show the characters appropriately. The characters are probably 光成 and the bowl is probably Korean.

Regards - Tom

The mark, shown rotated 90 degrees to the left of proper reading position, appears when uprighted to read down in Chinese Mandarin as "Guang Cheng" (光成). This could be a Chinese name, with Guang being the surname as read in the modern style following the given name. Or it could be a factory name, having a literal meaning of "Becoming Bright". Perhaps your further research will help get to the bottom of it.

Best regards,

Bill H.
