A guide for this piece: about $44, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

A heavy zip-up cowichan cardigan from Kenzo in burgundy, cream and green wool, with a bold K at the chest and a poppy knitted across the back. Size S, with the original tags and hanger still attached.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the poppy has long been one of the house’s signature flowers. Here it is translated into the language of the varsity cardigan: a large, graphic flower in deep burgundy with a black outline and a cream centre, knitted into the back in intarsia and framed by stepped colour blocking.
The front is equally direct. A green K sits on a cream panel, below a burgundy shawl collar and above fine burgundy and cream stripes that finish in a deep green ribbed hem and cuffs. The chunky knit is closed with a full-length zip, and a Kenzo Paris woven label marks the size S at the neck. The attached tag identifies the wool composition, and the label records Italy as the place of manufacture.
Measured flat: shoulder width 50 cm (19.7 in), body width 57 cm (22.4 in), length 70 cm (27.6 in), sleeve length 64 cm (25.2 in). Every measurement is taken by hand with the piece laid flat, so please allow a gentle margin of about 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in).
