A guide for this piece: about $1,203, 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 five-pointed black leather body gives this Chanel AS4579 its star outline.
The Piece
Diamond quilting crosses both faces, while separate gold-tone letters spell CHANEL across the front. A leather-threaded chain carries the bag, and a small star ends the zip pull. The main opening follows the top edge rather than a rectangular flap. Chanel's classic quilted purse dates to 1955, but this later shaped bag is not a 1955 piece by association. The 22 cm height and width span the star shape; they are not the dimensions of a rectangular usable compartment. The points reduce the continuous interior space available for a phone or case. A 116 cm strap measurement is length rather than drop.
