A guide for this piece: about $124, 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 Herbag Ado PM, the backpack version of Hermès' modular canvas classic, in natural toile with honey-toned Vache Hunter leather, padlock and clochette.
The Piece
The Herbag grew out of the Kelly: a canvas body with a removable leather flap, designed so that one bag could become several. The Ado variant turns the idea into a backpack, keeping the same flap, clou fastening and cadena while adding carrying straps. It has become one of the most practical ways to own an everyday Hermès, and the Ado has been out of the regular line for some years.
This PM example pairs a sand-coloured toile body with a Vache Hunter leather flap, strap and handles, now mellowed to a warm honey patina. The front strap closes on the signed palladium clou, the padlock and leather clochette are present, and the Hermès Paris Made in France stamp is clear on the flap. Inside, the canvas body is unlined and open, with room for a laptop sleeve, notebooks and a day's essentials.
It wears comfortably on the back or carried by the top handle. Canvas and Hunter leather age together into the sun-faded, well-travelled look Herbag owners tend to prefer, and the flap can be changed for other Herbag bodies.
