Answer:

Small flat rate box

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she sells necklaces we can assume that the question is missing spaces and the actual dimensions are 1 3/4inch by 2 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch. This being the case she can use the Small flat rate box from the local post office for her necklaces. This is the smallest flat rate packaging available aside from envelopes, but since the artist needs a 3dimensional box the envelopes would not work. This small flat rate box has the following dimensions  8 11⁄16″ x 5 7⁄16″ x 1 3⁄4″ it also can hold up to 70lbs which far exceeds the weight of the necklaces.
