A furniture element, in particular a support or shelf having at least one storage level, has a carcass having at least one support surface, and a translational-rotation fitting for allowing a translational-rotational movement of the carcass relative to a carrier plate of the fitting from a starting position into an open position, and back. The carcass can be moved, relative to the carrier plate, out of a starting position, into an intermediate position, and further into an open position, and back. In an intermediate position, the carcass is rotated in a rotational direction and is displaced in a predefined direction; a guide channel that specifies the direction is provided in the carrier plate, in which guide channel a guide carriage is displaceably received. There is at least one self-retraction apparatus coupled to the guide carriage and is situated on a side of the carrier plate facing away from the carcass.

Furniture element and piece of furniture

A guide device for a moveable furniture part, in particular a drawer, has a catch which is moveable along a guide track and which is pretensioned by an energy store and which is moveable at least between a parked position with a tensioned energy store and an end position with a less tensioned energy store. The energy store can be coupled to an activator between the parked position and the end position in order to transmit a braking or acceleration force to the moveable furniture part, and wherein the activator has a metal support part.
