Back sideOops its not a butterfly. Its the stylized leaves. 

This item has a yearcode BD what means that it was made in 1934. (1935 should have been BE)

896 was an internal number as they only started in 1985 with product numbers.

It was made at the Porceleyne Fles in delft and painted by mr. Roggeveen who painted for them from1892 till 1945.
