A guide for this piece: about $1,181, 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.

DOB Unleashed
Mr. DOB began as a neat cartoon logo and grew teeth over the decades. Here he rides a jewelled wave across marbled gold and plum, a late, restless image of the artist's alter ego.

Freight piece: please confirm delivery before purchase
This piece travels in a crate or by freight rather than standard mail, and may need careful dismantling before it can be packed. The shipping shown at checkout is an estimate. Japonista reserves the right to determine the final handling, crating and freight cost when your order is received, according to the piece, the destination and carrier conditions at that time.
We advise requesting a delivery quote before checkout. If the final cost is higher than the amount paid, we send the difference for your approval before dispatch. Your piece is held for you until it is settled.

772772, a 2016 Takashi Murakami offset print on a large landscape sheet of 98 x 65.7 cm, from an edition of 300 and offered as signed.
The Piece
The composition reads as three tall panels set side by side: a marbled field of plum and white at the left, a mottled ground of gold and silver at the centre, and a pale, almost bare panel at the right. Across them rides a fanged head with round ears, Murakami's Mr. DOB in one of his wilder late forms, carried on a long, jewelled ribbon that sweeps in from the left.
Beneath the head, a black disc opens like a hole in the picture, and at the lower right streams of red, green and white run down in drips. It is the restless, layered Murakami of the 2010s. The page describes the sheet as bought from Kaikai Kiki and kept unframed, to be sent in the packing in which it arrived.
