Hermes Baby Typewriter — 1950s Switzerland

An absolutely beautiful and iconic Hermes Baby from the 1950s in a rare original mint-green finish. Ultra-light, elegant, and exceptionally refined, it is widely regarded as one of the most desirable portable typewriters ever produced.

Manufactured in Switzerland, the Hermes Baby became legendary for its slim profile, lightweight construction, and beautifully balanced design. Compact yet surprisingly capable, it delivers a smooth and satisfying typing experience while remaining one of the smallest portable typewriters ever made.

Its clean lines, full-metal construction, and distinctive mint-green color give the machine timeless mid-century character. Highly sought after by collectors, the Hermes Baby is both a functional writing instrument and a true design icon.
