[[Osmia]] was founded in [[1919]] by ''Hermann Böhler'' under the name of ''Böhler und Cie'', in Dossenheim, near Heidelberg. Böhler, as many others of his colleagues who made a similar choice, left [[Kaweco]] to create a new company with his brother Georg, leveraging the expertise gained in this field inside [[Kaweco]], during the years in which that company acquired [[A. Morton & Co.]] to realize a production of gold nibs.

La produzione iniziale della [[Osmia]] era costituita principalmente da matite meccaniche e stilografiche in ebanite con caricamento [[safety]]. Il marchio della [[Osmia]] era costituito da un rombo collocato all'interno di un cerchio. La prima versione del marchio era costituita da una croce greca convessa, ma è stato riportato<ref>[http://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?s=c45f3e9adbdca24ea62226e4eabdbc10&showtopic=15065 Un messaggio di FPN] con il riassunto di una intervista a Gregor Miltner, impiegato nell'azienda dalla nascita, ed anche presidente negli ultimi anni.</ref> che data la somiglianza con il proprio marchio la [[Montblanc]] intentò causa richiedendo un risarcimento elevatissimo e la distruzione completa di tutta la produzione. La cosa avrebbe distrutto l'azienda, ma la causa si risolse con un accordo e Böhler dovette modificare il simbolo trasformando la croce in un rombo.

The initial [[Osmia]] production consisted primarily of mechanical pencils and hard rubber [[safety]] pens. The [[Osmia]] logo was a diamond placed inside a circle. The first version of the logo consisted in a convex Greek cross, but has been reported<ref>In a [http://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?s=c45f3e9adbdca24ea62226e4eabdbc10&showtopic=15065 FPN post] with an interview to Gregor Miltner, an [[Osmia]] from its birth, also become chairman in its later years.</ref> that given the similarity with its own logo [[Osmia]] was brought to court by [[Montblanc]], that required a very high compensation and the complete destruction of the entire production. That would have destroyed the company, but the case was resolved with an agreement and Böhler had to change the symbol transforming the cross in a diamond.
