A guide for this piece: about $22, 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 Kenzo wool jacket, reworked by hand into a cropped trucker silhouette and splashed with gestural paint in white, yellow, red and blue. The quilted lining is printed with orange dots, and the label carries Hokusai’s Great Wave. Free size.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the house has long drawn its energy from the meeting of Tokyo sensibility and Parisian ease. This jacket is a one-off conversation with that history: an original Kenzo wool garment remade as a denim-style trucker, then painted by an independent hand in broad, energetic strokes that recall abstract expressionism.
The ground is a deep black wool, cut short and boxy with a pointed collar, two chest flap pockets and metal buttons. White brushwork sweeps across the sleeves and back, with bursts of canary yellow, scarlet and cobalt blue and a scatter of fine splatter over the black. Inside, the jacket is padded and quilted, lined in black printed with orange polka dots, and it is warm enough for cold weather. The woven label shows the Great Wave off Kanagawa above the Kenzo Paris name, a lovely Japanese touch. Because the piece has been reworked, it is a unique object and should be considered as such rather than as a standard Kenzo garment.
Measured flat: shoulder 56 cm (22.0 in), chest width 57 cm (22.4 in), waist 42 cm (16.5 in), length 66 cm (26.0 in), sleeve length 58 cm (22.8 in). Every measurement is taken by hand with the piece laid flat, so please allow a gentle margin of about 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in).
