Hello.  Please post a picture of one glass taken side on so we can clearly see the profile, and a picture of the base - even unmarked bases can give useful information.  A close up of the detail would be great too!

Photos as requested.  Just to confirm there is no pontil on the base

Is it possible that they come from Germany? I know this design... but don‘t know where I‘ve seen them. I‘m German, that is why I asked

Found them in Coldstream in the Scottish Borders

The remind me of Thomas Webb or Stuart pieces.
I need to have a look to see which.

Edited to add:

Specifically they remind me of these two vases with applied dabs and therefore I think there is a possibility they may be Stuart:

sorry to seem thick m, but to which post No. in your link, are you referring?                     Again, perhaps I'm missing something, but isn't it far more likely - in view of the description - that the op's saucers are far more modern than the old/antique pieces your may be thinking of?
It's very true that 'tears' were a form of surface decoration in the are nouveau style , but in view of the description of the base on these examples, then these sound to be far more recent.

The first one which shows the photographs of my vases:

Yes I see what you mean about no pontil mark on the foot.

However the dabs and trails definitely remind me of Stuart pieces

thanks m  -  and quite true that Stuart used dabs/tears, but only on much older glass, as far as I know - I'm convinced these saucers are modern.

and you may well be right
