A guide for this piece: about $30, 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.

The Louis Vuitton Monogram Colors bracelet, reference M1088A: a braided cord in turquoise blue set with five round metal beads enamelled with Monogram flowers and the LV initials.
The Piece
The cord is knotted by the macramé method into a flat, flexible band. Five silver-toned beads sit along the front, their motifs in navy, white and yellow. The backs are plain polished metal, one engraved with the maker's code, recorded as AK1213.
A sliding metal bead engraved LV draws the cord ends through to tighten the fit, and each end finishes in a small enamelled cap. The smallest wrist setting is about 16 cm. This example has clearly been worn: the metal carries scratches and the cord has raised some fluff, both stated plainly so that it can be judged as it is. No box or pouch is included.
