A guide for this piece: about $640, 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.

The OnTheGo BB from the Louis Vuitton and Takashi Murakami collaboration, a small monogram canvas tote carrying a panda in Murakami's superflat colours on both faces. Two-way, with a shoulder strap, in brown with a red interior.
The Piece
Takashi Murakami first reworked the Louis Vuitton monogram in 2003, and the panda has since become one of the most cherished creatures in his vocabulary. On this miniature OnTheGo the animal tumbles across the front and again across the back, its body built from jewel-bright orange, pink, white and violet shapes that seem to float above the classic brown canvas and its quiet repeat of flowers and initials.
Natural leather forms the rolled top handles and the corner tabs, and a red lining glows inside, with one open pocket and a hook closure at the centre. The bag is small enough to carry by hand or to wear across the body with the supplied strap, which makes it as comfortable on an afternoon in the city as at a dinner. It weighs approximately 330 g.
Dimensions as recorded: width 18 cm, height 15 cm, depth 8 cm (7.1 × 5.9 × 3.1 in); handle drop 22 cm (8.7 in); shoulder strap 103 to 127 cm (40.6 to 50.0 in). Please allow a gentle margin of about 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in).
