The Hybrid No2 Chair is a whimsical piece of furniture. Extremely feminine in nature, the elegant lines and pale aesthetic are tempered by its resemblance to a rabbit. From the bunny ears peaking above the backrest to the arms ending in the rounded curve of two paws, the Hybrid No2 Chair is made for those who enjoy indulging in the make believe from time to time, quite like Lewis Carroll's Alice.

Designed by Italian designer Merve Kahraman, the Hybrid No2 Chair is inspired by the mythologies of parahumans. Joining her [Hybrid No1 Chair](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/merve-kahraman), it is part of an animalistic collection. Entirely handmade, the Hybrid No2 Chair is fashioned out of wood finished with lacquer paint and special leather upholstery. A cross between classic and contemporary, it would add character to any home.
