When sending within Canada, if the item you are mailing an item not made of paper - ie: a necklace - it is considered 'Other (Non-standard/Oversize)' since it is not paper. It still qualifies as regular post (instead of the expensive parcel rate) but the box must be sent in a basic envelope and will be subject to a postage rate based on weight. 'Other' (Non-standard/Oversize) regular postal rates range from $1.94 - $5.47 based on weight up to 500g. Over 500g and it must be sent as a parcel.
