A guide for this piece: about $645, 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 gold-tone CC turn-lock closes the outer flap of this beige Chanel lambskin bag.
The Piece
Diamond quilting covers the body, and leather is woven through a chain that can be arranged at different lengths. The second flap, rear open pocket and multiple interior pockets are visible in the supporting photographs. A CC clasp and second flap describe construction features, not a precise production year.
No precise creation date for this actual bag is established by the surviving information. The pale leather also makes the documented colour transfer and darkening on the strap important, rather than minor details to omit behind a general vintage description.
The inner flap fastening, outer turn-lock and woven strap are distinct components. Examine each separately; the body width alone cannot establish how freely the opening moves or how much weight the aged chain attachments can carry.

Condition
Original numeric score 7.5. Colour transfer, rubbed corners, stains and dirt affect the outside; the strap is darkened, fuzzy and soiled. The interior has scratches, rubbing and soiling. Metal fittings are scratched and dull with coating loss, and the storage bag is damaged.
Authenticity & Care
Keep the pale lambskin apart from dark fabrics and coloured leather to limit further transfer. Support the chain so it does not mark the quilting. Do not attempt to bleach existing stains or polish away the hardware coating loss; ask a specialist to assess the mixed materials.
