A sliding support for a legged article, such as an article of furniture, that can be attached to the article without the need for a separate fastener. The support will not become dislodged if the article of furniture is moved, can be reused many times, and will not damage the legs of the furniture. The support includes a resilient element for gripping the legs of an article of furniture and a slidable element for contact with the floor. The interengagement of the two elements assures that the support will not become dislodged as the article is moved.
