A guide for this piece: about $1,015, 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.

The last Tom Ford spring
A jacket from the closing chapter of Tom Ford at Gucci, when the house was at its most theatrical. Marabou is fragile by nature, and this example wears its years openly. It is a document of the runway as much as a garment.
Best for: The archive collector of Tom Ford era Gucci
Condition notes
Graded B: discolouration and feather loss are noted across the front, back, collar, sleeves and hem.
Wear is noted at the shoulders, marks on the lining, and loose stitching at the house label.

From Tom Ford's final Spring collection for Gucci in 2004, a cropped jacket built entirely of canary-yellow marabou. Marked size 38 and made in Italy, it arrives with its hanger and garment cover.
The Piece
The feathers are laid in horizontal bands, so the surface moves like a single soft cloud from the collarless neck to the hem. The front closes edge to edge with concealed hooks, and the lining is silk satin in the same saturated yellow.
The composition label reads "vera piuma di marabu", and the black house label sits at the nape. Seen on the form, the jacket ends at the high hip, with full sleeves that taper only slightly toward the wrist.

Authenticity & Care
Described as an authentic Gucci piece of the Tom Ford years; the house labels and maker's marks appear in the photographs. The Desk has not yet handled it, and our curators check every detail in Japan before dispatch. Fur and feather should go to a specialist cleaner only; store the piece hanging in a breathable cover, away from heat and damp.
Delivery from Japan
The garment is packed by hand in Japan, loosely in tissue inside a deep carton so that the pile is never crushed. Shipping is quoted and agreed with you before purchase, weighing EMS, then FedEx, then air cargo, all insured and tracked. Duties and taxes, where applicable, are payable on arrival. Every sale is final; please ask anything you wish to know before you buy, and see our published policy.
Every figure above is taken by hand with the garment laid flat, in centimetres. Lay a shirt or jacket you already love beside them and allow a centimetre or two of margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our size guide to tops and jackets turns pit-to-pit figures into US, UK, EU and Japanese sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
Considered offers are welcome through Send an Offer, and each one is reviewed personally. See more from Gucci, or browse what has just arrived.
