A guide for this piece: about $6,548, 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 vintage 18K yellow gold bracelet of broad curb links, each carved with a rope-like grain.
The Piece
Hermès began in Paris in 1837 as a harness workshop, and rope, knot and rein motifs recur across its jewellery.
Heavy curb links are cut with fine twisted lines, so the whole bracelet has the texture of braided cord. The maker's hallmark is present; the gold purity stamp has worn away or was never struck, as was the practice of the period. The bracelet has been polished.
It is 19 cm (7.5 in) long with an inner diameter of 16.5 cm (6.5 in), up to 1.57 cm (0.62 in) wide, and weighs 110.6 g (3.9 oz).
