About Texture

Texture is a woman owned and operated gift and clothing boutique located in the heart of historic Ghent in Norfolk, Virginia. Texture was founded in 1999 with the mission of providing unique artisan merchandise to the local community. We stock small makers, artists and brands from our neighborhood and around the world. One of the best parts of shopping with us is that you are also supporting hundreds of other small businesses too!

Kelly Stokes began working at Texture in 2010 and quickly fell in love with the business and its mission. In 2016, Kelly became the new owner and today, Texture continues to provide a friendly, happy place to shop for gifts and clothing at its home at 1703 Colley Avenue.

 Kind words from some of our friends…

Katie

You know how to point things out, you buy beautiful items, and the way you decorate the store is so cheery and uplifting. All coffee houses should look that bright and cheery inside! .. You have many personal gifts but what you’re doing now and how you present it to the public is a true gift.

Elizabeth

Wonderfully unique items!

Sarah

Always a pleasure to visit you!
