A chair including a plurality of legs having glides attached to the legs is provided with glide socks that are assembled over each of the glides. The glide socks each have a fabric body that envelops a floor facing surface of the glide and an inwardly extending top surface of the glide. The glide socks each include a band of elastic material sewn to an inner edge of the fabric body that is retained in the recess by the band of elastic material. A method of making a glide sock includes the step of providing a blank of a fabric having a perimeter and sewing a band of elastic to the perimeter of the blank. The band of elastic material is stretched as it is sewn to the perimeter of the blank.

A storage shelf base for an item of furniture or household appliance has a support plate stationarily arranged on a body of the item of furniture or household appliance, and a storage shelf which is positively driven relative to the support plate and can simultaneously be moved rotationally and translationally. Facing bearing surfaces of the support plate and the storage shelf have respective at least substantially closed circulating running grooves, in which rolling elements are guided. The support plate can be detachably secured to the body of the item of furniture or household appliance. At least one securing region for detachably securing the support plate to the body of the item of furniture or household appliance is formed on the support plate and the storage shelf can be secured to the support plate without the use of tools.
