A guide for this piece: about $656, 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 MM in black Taurillon leather, its flap and opening trimmed in cream shearling, with a matching shearling Monogram shoulder strap.

The Piece

The Capucines, named after the street where Louis Vuitton opened his first shop, is the house’s structured top-handle bag, closed by a flap and its gold-tone LV. This winter version edges the bag in cream shearling and adds a wide shearling strap patterned with the Monogram.

It is marked made in France, carries an RFID chip in place of a date code, and has one interior zip pocket. It comes with its dust bag and shoulder strap and is described in Japan as barely used.

At 31 by 20 cm and 11 cm deep, the MM takes a day’s essentials. The shearling trim and strap soften the black Taurillon, and a 30 cm handle sits beside a strap of 94 to 100 cm.
