a refrigerated item of furniture


Explanation:
One would not refer to a furniture item with refrigeration capabilities as "air-conditioned" in English. Rather, you would need to mention its specific function, that is, refrigeration.

I get a number of hits for "refrigerated furniture," including a company called itself that.

IF you are controlling both the AH (ambient humidity) and the temperature, you are then talking about \'climate-controlled cabinets\' or \'controlled atmosphere cabinets\'.

Ciao from a wine lover,
