A guide for this piece: about $378, 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.

Three connected rows of graduated Akoya pearls form a lace-like band on this Mikimoto necklace.
The Piece
The pearls range from approximately 3.5 to 7 mm across, with a 40 cm necklace length. Those figures describe this strand, not every Mikimoto lace design. The clasp has fine scratches and, importantly, its double-lock element is loose. The necklace should not be represented as secure for wear until the clasp and its safety element have been checked. A cloth case is included and has signs of use; no letter grade is supplied by the item description.

Authenticity & Care
Have a jewellery specialist assess and, if appropriate, repair the loose safety lock before wearing. GIA recommends avoiding chemicals, heat, steam and ultrasonic cleaning for pearls. Wipe gently with a soft cloth, allow damp threading to dry and keep the lace arrangement from tangling during storage.
