Testimonials

Love By Fable. The products are super high quality and look amazing in their chic minimalist packaging. Bought some framed illustrations which go really well together and I always have a supply of great cards when it’s someone’s birthday or I need to write a think you note. Thoroughly recommended!

Ben Marlow

Absolutely adore these products. Gifted some prints to a friend for her birthday who loved the chic, minimalist designs as much as me. Customer service was fantastic and the packaging was stunning. Will be purchasing from ByFable again and again!

Alexandra Forrest

We had the pleasure of working with Lizzie of By Fable for a very special piece of art for a Father’s Day gift for my husband and it turned out beyond spectacular! We have since moved from Singapore and her piece is one of the most cherished things we’ve brought home with us from Singapore!
I highly recommend By Fable for her beautifully designed high quality prints and stationary items! Plus, she’s just such a joy to work with!!

May Bartus

Having bought one of her pictures previously, I asked Lizzie if she could create a bespoke piece, in her unique style, of our family's house in Ipoh.

Working from a photograph, she beautifully captured the house with all its character. We loved the final version so much that we bought a second piece for my mother-in-law in London as a souvenir of her family's home.

Thank you Lizzie. We absolutely love it.

Elizabeth Howat

Found! I didn’t realise I could find such quality and design in Singapore.
I got tempted by some of the prints - such a range - perfect for a group in a visitors bedroom.

Esme Parish
