A guide for this piece: about $62, 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.

Devotion in full colour
The souvenir jacket was always a carrier of emblems; here the emblems take over the whole cloth. Roses, chains and the Virgin repeat across every panel, the WACKO MARIA vocabulary at its most complete, on a rayon blend that moves like a shirt.
Best for: WACKO MARIA collectors; statement layering in spring and autumn
Condition notes

WACKO MARIA's Chains Maria Ska Jacket under The Guilty Parties label: a souvenir jacket in black rayon and cotton, printed edge to edge with red and blue roses, heavy gold chains and the figure of the Virgin Mary. Tagged M, made in Japan.
The Piece
Where a classic sukajan places one emblem on the back, this jacket covers every panel. Gold rope chains loop across a black ground, threaded with full blown roses in scarlet and pale blue on bright green leaves, while the Virgin Mary, robed in pink and blue with a radiant halo, appears down the sides and along the sleeves. The print is continuous across front, back and arms, so the jacket reads the same from every angle.
The cut is clean and close: a zip front, set-in sleeves and black wool rib at the collar, cuffs and hem, with a smooth black cupro lining inside. The shell has the soft hand and gentle sheen of a rayon blend, and it drapes rather than stands.
Religious imagery is a signature of WACKO MARIA, the Tokyo house whose name invokes the Virgin, and this pattern puts it at the centre of a jacket built on the souvenir silhouette.
