A guide for this piece: about $79, 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 large Boston bag from MIHARA YASUHIRO in black grained leather, crossed by four tan crocodile embossed buckle straps, with an engraved metal plate inside.
The Piece
The straps lead. Four broad tabs of tan leather, embossed with a crocodile scale and fastened with dark metal buckles, run over the frame opening on each side, two to a face. Against the black body they give the bag the look of an old doctor's case or travelling trunk, scaled up for a weekend.
The body is soft black leather with a fine pebbled grain and a vertical seam down each face. Two rolled top handles rise from the frame, and a leather tag hangs from one side. The base is flat and stands on metal feet. Inside, a black lined interior holds a zipped pocket below two metal plates, one engraved MIHARAYASUHIRO and one with the house star.
A substantial piece of the label's leather goods, made with the same interest in reworked tradition as the clothing.
