Around [[1946]] the different model lines, the [[Le 4 de Bayard|Le 4]], the [[Special 8]], the [[Special Luxe]] and the [[Superstyl]] underwent a restyling following the overseas trends, the latter two with completely ogival lines and new shapes for the clip. In [[1949]] a further variant of the [[Superstyl]] model was also introduced, with a metal cap. In the same year the company launched some other models: the [[Super Bayard]] as a new top model, the [[Capostyl]] with ''[[hooded nib]]''. All of them were [[accordion filler]].

In the early 50's the stylistic lines were uniformed and the various series took a similar form. All models moved to a fully streamlined shape losing the tapered conical ends. In [[1950]] the luxury model [[Super Bayard]] was launched; in the same period other models were born such the [[Bayard 2000]]. Also some [[pump filler]] models like the ''Excelsior 507'' were produced, and also some [[accordion filler]] model (the [[Stylomine]] patent was expired) like the [[Fit]].

During the '50s the company underwent a continuous decline in sales caused by the growing market share of the ballpoint pen. [[Bayard]] try a revival in [[1956]] with the [[Souverain de Luxe]] model, a streamlined pen, with [[hooded nib|covered nib]] and [[accordion filler]], produced with a metal cap. But at the time the writing instruments market was dominated by ballpoint pens; smaller models were introduced, such as the [[Bayard 20]], the [[Bayard 30]] and the [[Karting]], a [[cartridge filler]], but the decline continued relentlessly until the final closure in the mid of '70s.
