A guide for this piece: about $468, 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.

Small pearls form an open lace-like band on this Mikimoto necklace, meeting a decorative yellow-gold clasp.
The Piece
The woven arrangement is different from a single straight strand: its width and the distribution of small pearls should be considered when assessing how it sits around the neck. The pearl range is 3.5 to 5.2 mm, while the overall necklace length is 40.5 cm. Refinishing is as work by a partnered jeweller, not service by Mikimoto itself. The maker traces its pearl-cultivation history to 1893. A provided replacement case is expressly not original Mikimoto packaging and should not be a maker presentation box.

Authenticity & Care
Keeping pearls away from chemicals and heat, wiping them gently with a soft cloth and avoiding ultrasonic or steam cleaning. Let a damp string dry before wearing it. Have the threading and clasp checked before regular use; cleaning is not a current safety test.
