OUR STORY

Hemmingway's Specialty Shoppe is a unique online shop that offers dainty jewelry and stained glass art inspired by the sea. Our products are carefully crafted to reflect the beauty and tranquility of the ocean and all things tropical. We take pride in our commitment to quality and our passion for creating one-of-a-kind pieces that are both elegant and unique.

 

Kim Radford is a glass and jewelry artist from NC, currently living in Northern Virginia. Her journey with glass began long ago when she took a stained glass course at a small community center. Little did she know how she would fall in love with the the delicacy, vibrancy of color and all of the many imperfections and life analogies found within its beauty! Her love of gemstones and jewelry came as no surprise as there are so many similarities found within the beauty of gemstones and glass and how they blend together perfectly. Her love for all of God's beautiful creations and all things tropical are a constant inspiration for her artistic spirit.  Her husband Alex is her constant encourager along with their two furry children Hemmingway and Jasmine.


At Hemmingway's Specialty Shoppe, we believe that art is not just something to look at or wear, but something to experience and take you to the place you long to be. Discover the magic and wonder of the sea in our beautiful creations and thank you for supporting our small business!

For now we see through a glass, darkly: but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
