A guide for this piece: about $1,035, 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.

A vintage Chanel mini flap bag in black suede-finish fabric, set with a medallion of amber, red, green and blue glass stones on a gold-tone chain.
The Piece
Chanel was founded by Gabrielle Chanel, who opened her first Paris shop, a milliner's, in 1910.
The flap is faced in black suede-finish fabric and edged in leather, and a medallion of cabochon glass stones in amber, ruby red, green and deep blue is set in gold-tone metal at its centre. A fine gold-tone chain carries the bag over the shoulder, and a magnet closes the flap. The leather lining has a zipped pocket, and a CC is stamped on the base.
The bag measures 17 cm (6.7 in) wide, 11 cm (4.3 in) high and 7 cm (2.8 in) deep, with a shoulder drop of 110 cm (43.3 in). It comes with its guarantee card and serial seal, and the serial seal is shown in the photographs. The serial is partly masked.
