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.

A Pochette Accessoires from Takashi Murakami’s Cerises line, its Monogram canvas set with a pair of smiling cherries.

The Piece

Takashi Murakami’s collaboration with Louis Vuitton, begun under Marc Jacobs in 2003, scattered his flowers, cherries and characters across the house’s Monogram and made it one of the defining partnerships of the decade. The Cerises line of 2005 dotted the Monogram with Murakami’s red cherries, each with a cartoon face.

This pochette carries date code TH0015 and the stamp Louis Vuitton Paris, made in France. It is described in Japan as in comparatively good order, with sunning to the vachetta, and comes without accessories.

At 21 by 13 cm and 3 cm deep, the pochette is a clutch for the essentials. The vachetta trim has deepened to a warm tone, and a zip closes the top, with gold-tone hardware at the pull.
