Lists some furniture (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tables

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'furniture' is the definition.
(I know that tables is a type of furniture)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tables that I've seen before include "Facts and figures arranged in columns" , "Lists of figures arranged in columns" , "Sets of facts and figures in columns and rows" , "Sit at the strange stable" , "Turn these to gain the advantage" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
