It was at the suggestion of Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin (1812-1852) that the business expended into glass manufacture in 1845. Pugin designed for the firm until his death when this role passed onto his nephew John Hardman Powell (1827-1895). Throughout the world most major cathedrals, churches and many civic buildings contain some of the distinctive windows designed and made by Hardmans. The firm was renamed John Hardman Studios in about 1939, at which time Donald Battershill Taunton and Patrick Feeny were designers. Able to move on from the Victorian and Edwardian Gothic Revival styles, the firm survived and continued until its closure in 2008. This glass plate negatives archive was acquired by the current owners directly from Hardmans at this point. The records of the firm of John Hardman are held at Birmingham Archives & Heritage, the cartoons and illustrations produced by the firm are at Birmingham Museums & Art Gallery, and original designs for some of Hardman's 20th-century stained glass windows are held by the University of Birmingham.
