Guarantee insurance
Explanation:
I think that the insurance is meant to cover the guarantee given on the furniture and not the furniture itself.

Here is a definition of \"Garantieverzekering/dekking\":
Verzekering van de aansprakelijkheid van een fabrikant, voortvloeiend uit een door hem aanvaard garantiebeding, d.i. een beding, waarin hij, soms met enige beperkingen, de deugdelijkheid van de door hem geleverde produkten gedurende zekere termijn na aflevering garandeert. De verzekeraars die dergelijke verzekeringen accepteren sluiten meestal aanspraken wegens fouten in het ontwerp (faulty design) van de dekking uit, terwijl zij doorgaans verlangen, dat de verzekerde een bepaald eigen risico zal dragen.

If it\'s the guarantee itself that needs covering, then I\'d go with Jarry\'s answer.

Proves indeed that more context is often needed regarding actual assignments as well

neutral  Marijke Mayer: Obviously the money ultimately has to be forked out for the insured risk, and not the warranty. The insured risk is the furniture in this case.

  -> In my view, the insurance serves to cover the risk of clients making a claim under the warranty. The premium would therefore be based on that risk and not on the risk of the furniture being stolen, damaged in a fire or whatever.
