A guide for this piece: about $54, 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 heavy distressed cardigan by Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference 91503546: black knit in cotton, acrylic and wool, opened up with holes and runs across the body, a tall ribbed stand collar, patch pockets and frayed, unravelling hems. Marked size 46, made in Japan.
The Piece
Destruction has been part of Mihara Yasuhiro's vocabulary from the beginning, but here it is handled with real restraint. The knit is thick and the shape is classic, a buttoned cardigan with a high ribbed collar that can be worn open or closed to the chin, and two patch pockets low on the front.
Against that sober outline the yarn has been worked into holes, ladders and loose loops, scattered across the chest, back and sleeves, until the hems and cuffs hang in strands. Seen from a distance the cardigan reads simply as black; close to, it looks like a favourite piece worn through a decade of winters. Inside, the house label reads Trust Yourself above its Wearing Instructions.
