• wherein said furnishing element further comprises a sanitization assembly connected to said furnishing element shelf, said sanitization assembly comprising:
• a box-like containment body that is connected to and continuous with said furnishing element shelf, said box-like containment body comprising side surfaces, wherein said box-like containment body has a width and thickness that are the same as a width and thickness of said furnishing element shelf, and wherein said side shelf surfaces of said furnishing element shelf are continuous with the side surfaces of said box-like containment body;
• and
• a sanitization device, wherein the sanitization device is a device capable of sanitizing the air crossing it and items that the sanitized air subsequently reaches, and wherein said sanitization device is received in said box-like containment body,
• wherein said sanitization assembly is connected to said furnishing element shelf by connecting to said rear shelf edge of said furnishing element shelf, said furnishing element shelf and said sanitization assembly being co-planar with one another;
• wherein the side surfaces of said box-like containment body include:
• an upper side containment body surface, which faces upwards in a normal installation of the furnishing element, in a vertical direction moving away from a support surface of the furnishing element;
• and
• a lower side containment body surface, which faces downwards in the normal installation of the furnishing element, in the vertical direction approaching the support surface of the furnishing element;
• and
• wherein said box-like containment body further comprises at least one inlet opening for the air to be sanitized, at least a first sanitized air outlet opening defined in said upper side containment body surface, and at least a second sanitized air outlet opening defined in said lower side containment body surface.
