The images in the base of your steins are lithophanes. There is an article about lithophanes in the Library section of this site (click on "SCI Home Page" above, then on Library in the navigation bar). Porcelain steins are often totally unmarked as to manufacture, and their characteristics are so similar that it is usually impossible to identify the maker.
