Among the first Patent shapes introduced by Charles Peterson in 1896, this antique Bent Brandy design was a favorite of Mark Twain, whose own rendition of the shape remains on display at the Mark Twain Boyhood Home and Museum in Hannibal, Missouri. Complete with muscular proportions, a thick transition, a slightly tapered bowl, and a deep bend, the design epitomises the signature House Style as it's existed for over 150 years.
