Hi All,

As many I am on the hunt for a paolo piva alanda table.

I found one at a fair but I am not sure of it's origin as it's a design which, while being similar, is not exactly as the one we see more commonly.

What would your thoughts be ?

It looks exactly like a fake. You can find this table in the store and compare the quality of production.

Thanks for participating to the conversation.

My doubt started as I saw online few sellers that are selling tables that seem to me exactly the same version. (I called the seller and he confirmed me that he was an original one, with proof of it).

I try to google or find some book reference, but I only discovered there were different productions of this table in the 70's - 80's but I cannot find anything more.

Hereunder a couple of example found on the internet:
