It appears that you are right in not charging service tax on furniture.
Tax on hire charges on movable properties, if vat is not applicable, is proposed to be imposed in the Finance Act'08. After the relevant notification is issued you need to charge service tax on renting of furniture also.
However, in the instant case, it appears that, VAT is applicable, as possession and control of the furniture is passed on to the tenant. In that event no service tax is applicable.
Please check, whether VAT is applicable. That is the decisive factor.
