A guide for this piece: about $128, 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 Sideways Glance on an Oval
The pose and the look belong to the Nara vocabulary of the early 2000s. Whether the hand is his is an open question, and the piece should be bought on that understanding.
Best for: Buyers who like the image and accept an unverified attribution

A girl with a black bob and a green dress glances sideways, a lollipop at her lips, on an oval canvas: an oil painting, the work of Yoshitomo Nara, which the Desk presents as attributed and unverified.
The Piece
The figure is set low and to the left on a bare cream ground, in flat areas of black, green and pale pink with a thin dark outline. At the lower right are initials and the date 02. On the reverse of the canvas a second head is drawn in line, with a further inscription and the same date.
It is an oil painting by the artist, signed on both faces. No certificate, gallery label, invoice or exhibition history accompanies it. The price reflects that position: it is offered as an attributed work for those who enjoy the image, not as a documented original.
The oval stretcher is unframed, with the canvas folded and stapled at the back.
