A guide for this piece: about $86, 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.

Frost on a Dark Coat
A sweater that behaves like a pelt. Mihara Yasuhiro takes the plainest crew neck and grows it a shaggy surface, then bleaches the tips so the charcoal turns to silver in the light. Short, wide and quietly theatrical.
Best for: Collectors of textured Japanese designer knitwear
Condition notes
Light marks and wear from use. Uneven bleaching and loose loops are part of the design. Shag full and even in the photographs.

An Autumn-Winter 2025 sweater from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A15SW502: a cropped, boxy shaggy knit in charcoal, its long loops bleached to silver at the tips. Tagged 46.
The Piece
The surface leads. Every row of the knit throws out long, loose loops of cotton yarn, so the sweater reads less as a jumper than as a pelt. The loops were dyed dark and then bleached, leaving charcoal at the root and pale grey at the ends; from a step away the whole piece shimmers like frost on a dark coat.
Beneath the shag, a plain rib collar sits close at the neck. The cut is short in the body and wide across the chest, with dropped shoulders and long sleeves that fall past the wrist, a proportion that sits well over a long shirt or a high-waisted trouser.
Shaggy, brushed and bleached knits have become one of the house's most recognisable signatures of recent seasons: familiar shapes given a surface that looks as if time and weather have already been at work.
