Two Heights. One Beautifully Versatile Seat.

Designed to beautifully complement the light, airy style of our tables, this chair pairs graceful curves with thoughtful proportions for lasting comfort.

Its most distinctive feature is the ability to transform from a counterstool into a dining chair-and back again.  Simply exchange the legs using the same tool that assembles all of our products.

Enjoy counter stools at your kitchen island every day, then convert them into additional dining chairs whenever you extend your table for guests. Instead of storing a separate set of full-size chairs, you’ll always have extra seating ready when you need it.

Beautiful, comfortable, and designed to adapt as your gathering grows.

How Does It Assemble & How Is It Interchangeable?

Ted Helen tables use our patented connection system — U.S. Patent No. 11,969,082 B1 — built into every leg.  It is our furniture-focused adaptation of post-tensioning, a centuries-old engineering technique that creates strength by pulling pieces tightly together.

Navigate the image slides to see how the chair ships flat, assembles in minutes, and easily converts from a chair to a counter stool.

Step 1

Slide the chair back through the seat hole.

Step 2

Slide the back legs into seat back through the seat hole.

Step 3

Use the provided Ted Helen tool to tighten and clamp seat back and back legs together.

Step 4

Slide on the front legs.

Step 5

Tighten the front legs to the seat with the provided Ted Helen tool.

Engaging our strong, patented connectors with one simple tool makes these chairs easy to receive, quick to assemble, and simple to interchange between chair and counter-stool height.

Common Questions

So what should I order to make my seating interchangeable?

First, decide how many dining chairs and counter stools you’ll use every day.  For example, if you need four dining chairs for your everyday set-up and seating for two more people when your table is extended, order four chairs and at least two counter stools. Then  add two sets of dining-chair legs so you can trasnform those counter stools into extra chairs when needed.

Can you tell me more about the finish on the products?

After extensive research and numerous trials, Ted Helen uses an organic oil wax finish.  A three step process that is hand rubbed for ultimate protection. NO toxic chemicals, solvents, catalysts, VOC’s, or allergens.  Gloves and masks are not required when we apply, in fact it smells like a day at the spa.  

It is a three step process:

1. Two Coats Penetrating oil seeps in the wood to seal and enhance the grain.

2. One coat of finishing wax to protect the wood and provide a buttery smooth surface.

I’m delighted to offer a product that ensures both safety and effectiveness for finishing your lovely table. As a mother of three, I prioritize safety and durability above everything else. I understand the concern about wooden furniture’s resilience, especially around children.

While it’s challenging to completely avoid scratches on wood, we’ve selected a finish that simplifies quick touch-ups. The oil/wax comes with convenient, budget-friendly repair kits. 

Durability: Product uses the finest oils & waxes that evolved in nature to protect plants from the constant bombardment of the elements. It bonds molecularly within the surface instead of sitting on top like traditional finishes, meaning no peeling, flaking, delaminating, chipping or unsightly scratches & cracks. 

Value:  Product contains absolutely no solvents, so nothing will evaporate during the drying process. What is applied to the medium will stay in the medium, meaning a little Odie’s goes a long way – just buff a small amount into the surface, wait a bit, and buff off.

Safety:  Product contains absolutely no toxic chemicals, solvents, catalysts, VOC’s, allergens, or hardeners. Finishing that is safe for the whole family – gloves and masks are not needed.

Beauty:  Product system of all natural finishing, there is no one way to do things! There are no sanding restrictions, and multiple ways to achieve the finishing effect desired – be creative and free yourself! Our all natural formula of rich oils & waxes brings out the natural beauty, depth, and clarity of your wood surfaces.

What about scratches, or stains?

Don’t stress about everyday scratches — Ted Helen products are designed to withstand real life.

We finish our solid hardwood with penetrating oil and a protective wax topcoat instead of using a surface stain. The oil soaks deep into the grain, so when a surface scratch happens, the color remains more consistent. Most light scratches are felt more than seen.

This finish also makes maintenance simple. Rather than relying on thick surface coatings that are difficult to repair once damaged, our oil-and-wax finish is designed for easy touch-ups. When everyday wear happens, most surface marks can be refreshed in about 15 minutes.

And if a larger dent, ding, or deep scratch occurs, your products sectional design gives you options. You can remove the damaged section and send it to us for repair — or, if needed, replace that section instead of buying an entirely new item.

Just to be clear, do the everyday table sizes arrive in sections too?

Yes that is correct.  For example, a 44″ table will arrive in two 16″ sections and two 6″ table ends.

Does the table only extend from the outside or can you extend from the middle?

The fastest way to extend your table is from the outside: remove the table end, add your extension leaf, and reattach the table end.

For tables 66″ or larger, you can also extend from the middle with one extra step. Remove the table end, take off the section with the two outside legs, add the number of leaves you want, then reattach the leg section and table end.

How/where do I order shorter legs to make my leaves a coffee table?

You can add a coffee table kit to your cart: Coffee Table Kit.
