I'm researching this question as well and have found numerous examples from auctions (both in Europe and US) that show different styles with various dimensions with almost all labeled as piva for B&B. I know many sellers misattribute pieces , but does anyone know if B&B made a variety of versions back in the 80's? Or does anyone know who made the knockoffs? I see only France & Son makes a current replica but it looks nothing like these others. I saw this example listed on Vinterior as a Dutch table in the manner of piva. https://www.vint ... | |||||

piva table height 10.5 or 12 inches? hi, i was reading the thread regarding the fake vs real paolo piva coffee table (B&B italia - alanda). i am looking at a used one now that is only 10.5 inches high -- the earlier thread seemed to indicate the original design was 12 inches. was the lower height another version (same 47 inches square) or an indication that it is a reproduction? all other appearances seem genuine. separately, does anyone know of good ways to polish/buff out slight scratches in glass (reasonably) or is that just something that is what it i ... | |||||
Paolo Piva Alando Coffee table, real or fake? | 3 Relevance | 5 years ago | gruffaren | Identification | |
Hi, I am contemplating buying a coffee table claimed to be designed by Paolo piva, but I'm not sure if it is real or not. A picture is attached to this post. I browsed through the other threads on the forum, and from what I can tell it is probably a fake. It clearly does not have the thick glass sitting on top, and does not have the reinforces "cross" section right under the glass. But I also read that this table was made in different versions, and some sites sell a very similar looking version for about 4000 USD. See this link for example: https://www.dec ... | |||||

RE: Paolo Piva Alanda | Fake or real? | 3 Relevance | 6 years ago | Mlteenie | Identification | |
Hi folks We have had an alanda table for 20 years which we bought used. It has miraculously survived two kids and bikes banging into it near the back door. I thought I would join and ask whether you experts think this is genuine or not since there seem to be many small variations. Looking at the weight and quality I am of the mind that this is genuine. The glass is about 9mm thick with bevelled edges, rounded corners and remains in great condition other than a few scratches. The frame is steel and the measurements are 100cm x 100cm x 35cm high. The feet are approx. 23mm wide. There is one plastic corner pad missing. So what do you think, folks? Thank you! 🙂 | |||||

Hi there, you guys must be fed up with us newbies asking for authentication, so I thought I would add to the myriad of questions. I have what I think is a Paolo piva table that I may have to sell. 47" square (120cm), 26cm high. Glass is painfully heavy - so many bruises over the years!!! 13mm glass (slight green tint, rounded corners). Glass sits directly on black frame, no plastic. Purchased early 1990's. Paid £500 for it - took 3 men to carry it in. Not the best image - yet. Thanks in advance - no rush. Attachment: 20170709_153158.jpg | |||||

B&B Italia designers | 2 Relevance | 13 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
Why is it that B&B designs seem to have taken a turn for the worse a number of years ago? Some of what I would consider "classics" have vanished (Alanda sofa, alanda bed, alanda table for example)most everything seems to be from the same designer, Antonio Citterio, who, in my humble opinion, does some nice work but nothing outstanding: why have the stalwarts disappeared? Why is it that the piva designs are not reissued by another manufacturer? Thanks. | |||||
Real Paolo Piva or fake? | 3 Relevance | 1 year ago | stephanieds | Identification | |
Hello, I want to buy this Paolo piva alanda coffee table - but I just want to make sure it's an original. The seller says it is. The size is 100 cm x 100 cm. The versions B&B Italia sells today are bigger, so I don't know if the table was ever made in this size (square of 100cm) - and what to look for to be sure it's not a fake.

B & B Italia Alanda sofa question-link &pix attached | 3 Relevance | 13 years ago | lisa65 | General discussion | |
I am looking for a sofa and came across one on CL in my area. The sofa is red mohair. It looks like (and the owner claims it is) the Paolo piva alanda, which normally comes in leather (or came in leather, not sure it's made anymore) . I am considering the couch for other reasons -- color, size, reasonable price etc -- but would be interested if the seller is correct. Seller, who says he bought it off a family in NYC a few years ago, says he called B&B Italia and they said that the original sofas did not have labels. They also said they didn't know if it cou ... | |||||
Bought B&B Alanda table and seller claims its authentic | 2 Relevance | 12 years ago | casablanca | General discussion | |
Hi everyone! I've been lurking around here for quite a while now and just decided to sign up and start posting. Now maybe you guys can help me out with this one: I found a used alanda table online from aprivate seller, he told me that the table was authentic, around 10 years old and that he had bought it at a renowned furniture store in Cologne, Möbel Pesch. He apparently wasn't aware of the rareness of the table and didn't even know the brand, leave alone the product name. I paid 145 ? and picked it up last weekend. Now a friend of mine also owns an authentic alanda (which his parents bought in the 80's) and he noticed that there are a few differences between our tables. Mainly the dimensions (my alanda measures 100x100x30 cm whereas his isn't as high but much wider) and the glass top which sits on small feet between the frame on his table, whereas the glass top lies flat on top of the frame on my table. I contacted B&B but they just sent me the product sheet and couldn't help me any more. Can anyone of you tell me if there was a production period during which the glass top was placed on top of the construction rather than between the frame and did the alanda come in these dimensions? I'll also add pictures in a few minutes. Thanks in advance! Alex | |||||
