A guide for this piece: about $798, 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.

An Alma in Monogram canvas dressed as a small trunk, with brass-tone corners, a trunk lock and natural leather handles.
The Piece
The Alma was designed by Gaston-Louis Vuitton in 1934, and its rounded dome has stayed one of the house’s most recognisable shapes.
This version borrows from the house’s trunks: studded edging runs around the base, brass-tone corner protectors sit at each foot, and a trunk lock fastens the front under a leather tab. The Monogram canvas is joined by natural leather handles that will deepen in colour with wear.
It comes with its dust bag, a shoulder strap and a luggage tag.
