A guide for this piece: about $153, 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.

SBA01_P by TENGAone, an edition of one hundred released through Tonari no Zingaro and offered unopened in its original packing.
The Piece
A robot hero is rendered as if built from torn and folded cardboard: every plane of the armour carries printed tape, shipping labels and corrugated edges, painted with such precision that paper seems to have real thickness. Blues, reds and whites lock together in a tall vertical format.
The image measures 72 by 36.6 cm on a sheet of 79 by 49.4 cm. Because the package has not been opened, the photograph shows the work through its wrapping, with the carton label alongside.
TENGAone
TENGAone came out of the Tokyo graffiti scene and is best known for trompe l'oeil paintings and sculptures that imitate corrugated board. His work has been shown by Kaikai Kiki, and print releases from its Nakano gallery are allocated by ballot.
