Abstract: An article of furniture foot elevational spacer in the form of a carpet pile shield (10) comprises a generally rectangularly shaped hollow dual sided foot support (12) and a spacer leg configuration constituting a plurality of legs formations as provided by legs (14) ending with spiked opposite ends (16). The legs (14) fit adjustably and removably along threaded apertures (18). The one end (16.1) of each leg (14) is more acute than the opposite end (16.2) to enable the shield (10) to accommodate two pile thicknesses. The upward facing parts of the legs (14) perform a boundary defining function in bordering the seating area (12.2) of the support (12) to constrain the foot (22) of an item resting on it, once in use. The support (12) is also fitted with a foot dismounting counteracting finger (24) fitting screw-fashion along a centrally located threaded aperture (26) in the support (12).
