Furniture is a non-count noun, so you have to use the singular, this or that furniture.

furniture is uncountable
so
this furniture

As Stephanie wrote, furniture is uncountable (like water, rice, air, knowledge), so you should use "this furniture."
If you want to emphasis the different objects, you can use a word like "piece." For example, "These pieces of furniture" has the same general meaning as "this furniture," but "These pieces of furniture" emphasizes that there are separate an individual objects.
