A guide for this piece: about $610, 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 Capucines Mini in soft green Taurillon leather, with the house’s raised LV initials, a top handle and a chain-and-leather strap.

The Piece

Named after the rue Neuve-des-Capucines, where Louis Vuitton opened his first shop in 1854, the Capucines is the house’s leather handbag in its most architectural form. The Mini scales it to a small top-handle bag with a long strap.

This example has an RFID chip in place of a date code. It is described in Japan as close to unused and comes without accessories beyond its strap.

At up to 20 cm wide and 13 cm tall, it is compact, with one open pocket inside. The flap closes the bag, and the strap, up to 120 cm, allows it to be worn on the shoulder or across the body.
