A guide for this piece: about $113, 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 Tailor Toyo reversible sukajan in size XXXL: a dragon and a tiger on a navy face, and a gold map of Japan, Mount Fuji and a dragon on a red face.
The Piece
Tailor Toyo, the souvenir-jacket house of Toyo Enterprise, cut this jacket as a reversible sukajan. The woven neck label bears the word Tailor, the phrase Hand Embroidery, Mount Fuji and a spray of cherry blossom, with an XXXL size tab below it. No sewn style number is present.
On the navy face, the cloth is a smooth, slightly lustrous navy, with pale sleeves and red and white piping. A gold dragon with coloured clouds occupies one side of the chest; a tiger among bamboo occupies the other. The back carries the word Japan in a script hand and a large dragon head among clouds. The knitted rib is navy, cream and yellow.
Turned, it is a red cloth with pale sleeves. Two pale dragons sit on the chest. The back carries the word Japan, a gold dragon, Mount Fuji, cherry blossom, and a map of Japan with place names, among them Sapporo, Kyoto, Tokyo, Osaka and Yokosuka. The rib is black, cream and yellow. The front closes with a zip.
