A guide for this piece: about $46, 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 short-sleeved tee from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference B14TS591: faded indigo cotton printed with a photographic cat's face and ringed by hand-drawn words and doodles. Marked size 40.
The Piece
The cotton has been washed down to a soft, uneven indigo, mottled like old denim, and the body is cut boxy with dropped shoulders and short, wide sleeves. On the front a black and white cat stares out with green eyes, photographic and calm, while around it the house has scrawled a field of loose capitals and sketches: PERFECT UNION, SOCIAL NORMATIVE, small birds and figures, as though a schoolbook had been doodled over.
The back carries more of the same handwriting. Labels are part of the play: a WEARING INSTRUCTIONS tag stitched inside the hem, and a mock account card with a QR code at the front hem.
A portrait in the middle of a notebook margin.
