A guide for this piece: about $118, 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.

Cherries with Faces
Murakami's cherries turned a luxury monogram into a cartoon and made both more interesting. As jewellery the joke becomes three-dimensional.
