A guide for this piece: about $122, 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 Porte-Clés key ring in natural vachetta leather cut and embossed in the shape of Takashi Murakami’s panda, from 2004.
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. This key ring traces his panda in plain vachetta, which darkens to honey with time, on a gold-tone ring and clasp.
It carries date code CT1004 and the stamp Louis Vuitton Paris, made in France, and comes with its box and dust bag.
At 7.5 by 8.5 cm, it is a key ring small enough for a pocket, cut from vachetta leather with gold-tone metal. It comes with its box and dust bag, and the leather shows the sunning noted below.
