A variable height chair provides variable seat height measurements from the floor to the planar surface of the seat. The seat planar surfaces consist of seat panels forming a polygonal core and are supported at each end by two end frame panels. The central axis of the core is offset from the respective centers of the two end frame panels. The end frame panels have a number of identical dimensioned edges placed substantially parallel and apart from each other. The variation in height is achieved by the asymmetrical or offset location of the axis of the polygonal core. Through successive rotation forward or backward, different heights emerge for each planar seat surface. These different heights of the seat planar surfaces provide selectively different heights for persons of varied statures within the same age bracket and in different age brackets.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A chair for persons of various heights comprising:a) two end panels, each having identical dimensions, a plurality of continuous straight edges and a center point, and being disposed substantially parallel to and spaced apart from each other; andb) a polygonal core having a cross-section and a plurality of planar faces disposed between and supported by said two end panels, said cross-section of said polygonal core having dimensions less than said dimensions of said end panels, said polygonal core having a central axis, said central axis being offset from respective center points of said end panels,whereby an outside surface of each of said polygonal core faces is disposed at a predetermined distance from each of most proximate respective edges of said end panels, none of said distances between each of said faces and each of said most proximate respective edges being equal.
