A really fantastic find. This Art deco part frosted green pressed glass oval bowl set is made by Stolzle at their Czech Hermanova Hut factory in the 1930's. This information has been researched from online sources. There are 8 plates to hold 8 smaller fruit/dessert bowls plus a large bowl. I have noted that there are 4 dishes that have marks in the glass. They look like cracks within the glass but dont extend to the edges. I am not quite sure how to describe them, they could have been made in manufacture? Please take this into consideration. Please note I observed that this glass did not fluoress under UV lighting, but turned colourless.

From "Perplexity" on Google - So, your green glass going colorless under UV light suggests it is likely a vintage manganese-containing glass or possibly a specific type of uranium glass or other additive combination with unique fluorescence or photochromic properties. It is not the typical uranium glass green glow but rather a color change behavior due to light interaction with its chemical composition.

Based on your description, manganese or similar additives are likely involved in the UV color change behavior you observe.
