A guide for this piece: about $135, 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 smallest Evelyne, the TPM, in black leather with the perforated H and long crossbody strap: an everyday Hermès that has been refinished and is priced honestly for its history.
The Piece
The Evelyne was designed in 1978 for the equestrian world, a bag for carrying grooming brushes, with its perforated H allowing the contents to breathe. Over four decades it has become the most relaxed of the Hermès icons, worn crossbody and kept for years. The TPM, at roughly 16 by 17 cm, is the smallest size and holds a phone, cardholder, keys and lipstick.
This example is in black leather with the signature perforated H on the front panel, a strap tab with leather button closure, and the long adjustable strap measuring 113 cm. The Hermès Paris Made in France stamp sits under the tab. The bag has been refinished in black at some point in its life; the interior shows a brown tone, which suggests the original colour may have been different.
We have priced it accordingly. For a buyer who wants the shape, the craftsmanship and the ease of an Evelyne for daily use, rather than a pristine collection piece, it is a sensible way into the model.
Worn across the body it sits at the hip, leaving both hands free, which is exactly what it was made to do.
