A guide for this piece: about $47, 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 pair of wrap-around shorts from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference K12PT002: soft cotton and rayon in black, bleached through to a glowing rust across the seat and legs, with an elastic drawcord waist. Size 38.
The Piece
Treated finishes are one of the house signatures, and here the effect is dramatic. The black cloth has been bleached so that colour drains unevenly from the waistband downwards, turning copper and rust over the seat and thighs while the seams and hems hold their darker line, the way a garment fades when it has lived through a long summer.
The cut is relaxed, made as the house's wrap-around shorts, with a gathered elastic waist and inner drawcord, two welt pockets at the back and a short, easy leg. The blend of cotton and rayon gives the cloth a fluid drape and a faint sheen where the light catches the bleached panels.
A small piece with a painter's sense of colour.
