A guide for this piece: about $309, 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.

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.

Doraemon in the Field of Flowers, a print of 2019 by Takashi Murakami in collaboration with Fujiko F. Fujio, the creator of Doraemon, offered as hand-signed from an edition of 1000. Doraemon's own silhouette is filled with Murakami's smiling flowers. Kept unframed since; unused.
The Piece
Doraemon stands in his familiar pose, one round white hand raised in greeting, his red collar and gold bell in place. But the blue of his body has been replaced: the whole silhouette is packed with Murakami's smiling flowers, and among them appear Doraemon himself, his friends and small scenes from the stories, even a suburban house.
Two icons of Japanese popular culture meet here, the robot cat from the future and the Superflat flower.
The detail photograph shows the silver pen signature; the two signatures within the image belong to the printed design.
