This flashcard defines 'furniture' as movable objects like tables and chairs used to equip a room. It stresses that 'furniture' is an uncountable noun, meaning it doesn't take a plural form, and correctly refers to individual items as 'a piece of furniture'.
Furniture consists of large objects such as tables, chairs, or beds that are used in a room for sitting or lying on or for putting things on or in. Furniture is only ever used as an uncount noun. You cannot say 'a furniture' or 'furnitures'. If you want to refer in general terms to something such as a table, a chair, or a bed, you can say a piece of furniture or an item of furniture.
