Social media & content manager

Company Description

Fable England is a fashion accessories brand best known for exquisitely crafting hand-painted jewellery, handbags, scarves and sleepwear.

Inspired by classic British literature, each collection beholds a rich and playful narrative illustrated through prints and embroideries, where timeless scenes of nature set a whimsical spin on a classic tale to amuse and delight.

Our mission at Fable is to create joy and to care for the world we live in. Each tale and charm represents positivity and inspires kindness; these sentiments are expressed through our prints, embroideries, jewellery, vegan leather handbags and accessories.
