Abstract
This article etimologicaly analyses borrowed Romance words from the semantic domain of furniture in the vernacular of Boljun, with dictionary confirmations for the Chakavian speeches of Istra, Kvarner and Dalmatia. The corpus of Romance words was taken from the manuscripts of Ivan Francetić, whose Dictionary of the vernaculars of Boljun is stored in the University library of Pula. The material was checked in the field through field research, while according to the basic etimological textbooks for the studies of the Romance based languages, the near and final origin was established for the analysed lexemes.
