In a furniture system having an electrically adjustable piece of furniture and an energy transmission device, the piece of furniture has at least one actuator for adjusting the piece of furniture, an electrical energy store for supplying the actuator during an adjustment process, and a charging circuit for charging the energy store. The energy transmission device is adapted to receive energy from an AC mains supply and to deliver it wirelessly. The charging circuit is adapted to at least partially receive the energy output from the energy transmission device without physical contact with the energy transmission device and to use it to charge the energy store.
