A guide for this piece: about $682, 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.

Orange grained leather forms the open bucket body of this Picotin Lock PM 18.

The Piece

Two short handles rise from the sides, while a narrow strap crosses the opening and meets the hanging padlock. PM 18 is the model designation, not the maximum recorded width: the latter is 25 cm (9.8 in). It is Taurillon Clémence and associates a W stamp with 2024. The visible maker stamp reads Made in France.

Condition

Japanese grade A is a good used-condition category, not a statement that the bag is unused. No specific fault was separately named. See Japanese condition ranks.

Authenticity & Care

Protect the leather from humidity, prolonged light and extreme heat. Do not apply general household cleaners or unsuitable leather preparations. Any cleaning of mixed materials should be assessed by a specialist before treatment; a method suitable for the trim need not suit the body. Support the soft bucket shape gently during storage. Do not tighten the closure against an overloaded interior or infer a safe carrying load from the model designation.
