Millefiori paperweight actually consist of several rods of glass, whereas each rod itself consists itself of multiple layer of colored glass. In a first step for example white glass gets heated and then put into a heated form, for example a flower. Then another layer (for example orange) gets layered around the white glass and so on. Finally a long, thin rods gets created out of this, with for example additional wrists. These rods then serve as basis for the millefiori paperweight.

As we cannot see the paperweight, all I can do is tell you from the information you have given us how to calculate its mass: Find the volume of the paperweight - it will either be explicitly given or is calculable based on the shape of the paperweight; then: mass = volume × density = volume × 3.5 g/cm³ As long as the volume is given in cm³, the mass will be given in g.
The millefiori technique involves the production of glass canes or rods, known as murrine, with multicolored patterns which are viewable only from the cut ends of the cane. A murrine rod is heated in a furnace, pulled until thin while still maintaining the cross section's design, and then cut into beads or discs when cooled

A dandelion paperweight is made by carefully preserving dandelion flowers, typically by placing them in a mold with resin. The process involves arranging the flowers in the desired position, mixing the resin according to the manufacturer's instructions, and then pouring the resin over the flowers in the mold. Once the resin cures and hardens, the paperweight is removed from the mold, resulting in a beautiful, encapsulated piece that showcases the delicate beauty of the dandelions. Finishing touches may include sanding and polishing the edges for a smooth finish.
