I have something very similar, in a pale lilac colour. It is marked "Afors Bosse Lila" underneath, but while yours appears to have three big lobes with indents, mine has six definite lobes. (All indents are the same size.)
Maybe it's the angle your photo was taken? It can be a difficult thing to work out. I thought at first, mine was cased, but it's not.

Similarities with this Elis Bergh Kosta piece ? same code but does not look like his sig?
Just checked in the '50s Kosta reproduced some of his earlier designs and signed them BH
