A guide for this piece: about $1,220, 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.

An orange rolled handle rises above the quilted flap of this Chanel chain-strap bag.
The Piece
The matching interior has separated compartments and two round CC-marked fittings beneath the flap. Chanel's quilted bag vocabulary dates to 1955, not necessarily to the manufacture of this example. The 22 cm handle and 112 cm shoulder figures are lengths, not vertical drops; the styling photograph is not a calibrated fit measurement. The divided-looking interior and the shaped base affect usable space, but no internal compartment measurements are supplied. A rigid object should not be forced into the bag simply because its width appears to match the outer width.
