A guide for this piece: about $227, 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 pale CC roundel occupies the inner base of this rectangular black display tray.
The Piece
Contrasting rim strips and CHANEL lettering on a long side surround the shallow interior, with cut-out handles visible at the ends. A separate underside close-up reads Swing Design on the dark felt-like covering.
The rectangular dimensions distinguish it from the larger square tray, and the underside photograph helps show how the object sits on a surface. The gloss coating has not been chemically identified as lacquer.
The base photograph is also important for placement: its covering differs from the glossy interior and cannot be cleaned as though it were the same surface. The pale side bands and dark underside are retained in the photographs. No protective liner, carrying insert or original packaging is documented as an included accessory.

Condition
Small scratches from use are historically noted. No AB letter grade is independently supported, and no food-contact or carrying-load suitability is certified.
Authenticity & Care
Support the tray underneath instead of loading its cut-out handles. Keep liquids, hot cups and abrasive cleaners off the unknown coating and the felt-like base. A dry soft cloth is the conservative dusting option; do not use it as food-service ware without an appropriate assessment.

Ask about protective packing for the piece and destination before dispatch.
