By 1904 the company required a new building which was designed by Franz Schwechten. Puhl & Wagner merged in 1914 with the company belonging to Gottfried Heinersdorff who had excellent connections with several contemporary artists. The new company, which was named "Puhl & Wagner Gottfried Heinersdorff", produced stained glass and mosaics. After the Nazis came to power the company won further commissions and after the war received orders from private businesses. In 1969, as a result of the Berlin Wall, the company stopped trading in 1969. The company archives are now held in public ownership. Puhl & Wagner is probably best known in  Sweden for their mosaics in the Golden Hall of the Stockholm City Hall which was constructed between 1921 and 1923. References.
