There were no eggs in Egg Harbor, Wisconsin, until Kathleen Mand Beck came to town in 1993. She and her husband Tom Mand discovered a log cabin on the bluff of Egg Harbor and opened their gallery and studio in 1994. They named the gallery Dovetail, reflecting the construction style of the 1870s-era log home in which they live and work. Read more about the Log Cabin here.
Kathleen is internationally recognized for her intricately carved and etched egg art design personalized egg and sculptures created in her treehouse studios. Her love of eggs continues in the egg museum which includes Wisconin's only 70 million year old dinosaur egg, a Fabregé Egg collection, and a wild bird egg collection, along with nearly 500 decorated eggs in historical, ethnic, and contemporary patterns.
Tom creates the popular, Dovetail original, dancing copper sprinklers. His precise attention to detail and craftsmanship has been lauded by everyone who enjoys one of his sprinklers.
