A guide for this piece: about $1,170, 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.

Narrow brown wooden slats form the body of this Chanel Wood Vanity case, with black leather lettering and corner bands.

The Piece

A rectangular wooden handle rises from the lid, and silver-tone catches secure the opening. The contrasting wood, black trim and burgundy interior give the construction a different character from a soft quilted vanity. Inside are one zipped and one open pocket; a close photograph shows Made in France stamped into the lining.

A seven-digit serial sticker beginning with 3 is historically recorded, but no accompanying card is included. That series is not used here to assign a precise production year. The wooden shell should not be mistaken for a rigid travel trunk: its handle, catches and aged leather still require assessment before carrying a load.

A separate lid view shows the lettering across the upper surface, and the open-case photographs expose the catch mechanism and interior seams. Inspect those together with the handle peeling: a rigid shell can look orderly while its moving parts and leather joins still carry age-related wear. No protective travel-case performance is claimed.

Condition

Rubbing inside and outside, peeling on the handle, creasing of the leather lettering and small hardware scratches. Original numeric scores were 9 for each side; these have not been converted into an unsupported A grade. No restoration of the peeling handle is documented.

Authenticity & Care

Hold the case under its base instead of loading the peeling handle. Keep timber away from prolonged heat and damp, and avoid soaking or polishing the wood and leather with a single all-purpose product. Protect the raised leather letters from friction and pressure.
