An eclectic mix of artists’ merchandise, Trunkt is a treasure trove of beautiful, brightly colored picks, from pillows and throws to baby clothes, jewelry and T-shirts. The shop stands for independent design talent, steering clear of mass marketed “McDesign” merchandise. Artists must apply in order to display their wares in the sunny loft space that’s frequented by magazine editors, celebrities such as Christy Turlington and Thandie Newton, and Tribeca locals. Original paintings deck the white brick walls, while colorful agate coasters and trivets pose on a table also loaded with hand-painted salad bowls and vibrantly hued table runners. Even Fido has a friend in Trunkt, which stocks dog beds in golf-pant plaids. Scented candles, books and note cards make this an easy place to pick up a gift. Some artists also offer modern customized paintings inspired by your personal photographs, putting long- forgotten memories back on the wall.
