想請教一個詞的意思 the furniture of the world
首先從SEP facts這個詞條第一段這樣寫到：
Facts, philosophers like to say, are opposed to theories and to
values, they are the objects of certain mental states and acts,
they make truth-bearers true and correspond to truths, they are
part of the furniture of the world. We present and discuss some
philosophical and formal accounts of facts.

然後從SEP object這個詞條裡面，引用的羅素著作裡有這個詞：
The theory of classes is less complete than the theory of
descriptions, and there are reasons… for regarding the definition
of classes that will be suggested as not finally satisfactory.
Some further subtlety appears to be required… The first thing is
to realize why classes cannot be regarded as part of the ultimate
furniture of the world. (1919, 182)

另外還有哲學家Mario Bunge的其中一本著作就叫做The Furniture of The World
但就這些出處來說都只是提到而已，對於門外漢來講這個詞仍然沒有得到解釋
不知道有沒有哲學好心人幫忙解釋這個詞的意思為何？
