OMAS 555/S LADYSIZE OGIVA

In 1948 Omas introduced the Extra 55X line which comprised ogiva and facetted piston fillers in three sizes: 555 (lady), 556(senior) and 557 ( oversize).

The "S" suffix was used for cylindrical pens ( S: Semplice), while facetted pens were identified with the "F" suffix ( F: Facetted).

Colors were black, gray pearl and tortoise brown.

The Extra 556/s was one of the most successful models ever. It was the perfect pen,  slender and light to use; it could perfectly fit female  and small male hands.

The smaller 555/s was the ideal pen for female hands and suitable to be carried in a small purse. The large  557 oversize models was named simply Extra without model number in the engraving on the barrel:

This Omas 555/s is in excellent condition and it is fitted with a very flexible F nib which is extremely pleasant to use.
