The base member has a low profile configured to fit and extend beneath at least a portion of the bottom of the easy chair and includes a stabilizing portion to maintain the chair and the base member in a generally stable relationship with one another, with at least one side portion of the base member extending beyond a side of the arm chair to form a base support element. The columnar element has a bottom portion designed to be complementarily engageable with the base support element, a body portion, and an upper end, with the body portion extending upwardly from the base support element to the upper end which is positionable generally adjacent to and extending to above the level of one arm of the easy chair.
