A guide for this piece: about $224, 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.

A five pound note reworked with the bouquet thrower, printed on canvas, offered as bought at Dismaland in 2015 with its papers.
The Piece
The note keeps the engraved layout of British currency, but the park castle and a yellow sun sit at the left and the masked figure hurls his flowers beside the royal portrait. The name of the artist is printed in the design. It measures 20.5 by 10.5 cm and is set in a black frame 28.8 by 21 cm.
The park souvenir sheet, ticket and photographs travel with it. The owner states that no certificate is issued for souvenirs of this kind.
The Park at the Lido
Dismaland, the Bemusement Park, opened for five weeks in the late summer of 2015 in a derelict lido at Weston-super-Mare and drew more than a hundred and fifty thousand visitors. Small canvases, altered banknotes, posters and cards were sold on site in modest numbers, which is why material from the park is studied so closely today.
