Late Middle English (in the general sense 'provide or equip with what is necessary or desirable'): from Old French furniss-, lengthened stem of furnir, ultimately of West Germanic origin.

veneer from early 18th century:
The earliest form of veneer was fineer. It came into English through German furnieren from Old French furnir ‘to furnish’, and so is related to furnish (Late Middle English) and furniture (early 16th century). The idea behind it is that of ‘furnishing’ a piece of furniture with a thin surface.
