The first time I ordered a set i realized i didn't like the shape of the bowls so i exchanged them and it was a super seamless process!. That flexibility on ordering online really made me trust the company. Also, the plates are just beautiful - a creamy off white with a warm minimal look. If i absolutely had to offer a critique it would be that the plates are on the thinner side. I purchased them on their 30% off sale and feel they are worth the purchase!

Good
The order process, shipping and delivery was great. The product is beautiful I ordered the white speckled mugs (my first fable purchase).
Only feedback would be is I would like larger mugs as I like really big lattes. The handle is slightly awkward to hold maybe too circular vs oval and elongated like your hand shape when holding it.

Love my dishes, hate the service
Love my dishes, but the process was not ideal. When I placed my order, 3 out of 5 items were in stock, and the other 2 would be in about 2 weeks.
I selected to receive items as they were available. After over a week, I reached out to ask why nothing had shipped yet. I was told there was a glitch causing my entire order to ship together. When I asked if this could change and I could have the main part of my order right away I was told this couldn’t be done and that the shipping date was “just around the corner”.
A few days later I get an email that my bowls have been delayed. No date given, just that they were delayed. Then I reached out to confirm when my shipping date would change to and request that my original items be shipped now. I was assured that nothing had changed and my items were still on track for the same date. Again using the words that it’s “just around the corner”.
When this date came and went, I reached out yet again to ask when my order was coming and was told ooopsie, it will be another month at least. Why wouldn’t they have actually looked into this the last time I emailed?? Their email response here was downright rude and condescending, so I asked to me escalated to a manager who also told me nothing could be done.
After many more emails, I was eventually offered some free random sized items that weren’t very helpful, but I was told they had zero dinner plates or pasta bowls in stock in the entire company and this was all they could to do help me when I actually needed these dishes.
So they eventually did something to try to rectify the situation, but it was only after I pressed them many many times for answers, and received no accountability for leaving me without any dishes or providing me with accurate ETA’s.
Love the product now that I finally have it, but the service was to the point of being offensive at times repeating my own words back to me in quotations like I was being mocked.

I'm sorry. The delay is one part of this, but being told your order was on track when it wasn't, more than once, is the part that shouldn't have happened. You had to chase us each time to find out otherwise, and that was never your job.
I also want to look at how those emails were written. That isn't how we should be speaking to anyone.
Email me at [email protected]. I'd like to read the whole thread myself and put this right properly.

Fable for the win!
I love the dishes themselves! I was slightly disheartened by how long it took my order to arrive (and one of the dishes was broken), but that’s to be expected when they are hand-crafted and shipped. I love using them though!

Pathetic experience
Hi Joe,
The process was horrible. Your website to set up the order was difficult. It took me over an hour to set up my account and the website also timed out. Other people who were purchasing your products for the couple getting married also had difficulty. Once I got the order placed on June 24, 2026, the items ordered didn't arrive to the end user until Aug. 26- 3 days before the wedding and over 2 months since the order was placed. I left a voicemail with your customer service on July 26 and received an email the next day, but all I was promised was an arrival date of Aug. 13 (which did not happen) and a 10% discount on my next purchase. Next purchase? Why would anyone order from your company with such pathetic delivery expectations. And a 10% discount? That doesn't even cover the taxes I paid on the items I purchased. I really hope your company can do better in the future because if a prominent influencer ever experiences what I experienced, your sales will probably drop more than 10%.

Kyle, I'm sorry. Two months for a wedding gift, landing three days before the day, isn't acceptable. And offering you money off a future order clearly missed the point.
I'd also like to understand what you hit on the site, because what you're describing isn't how it should work for anyone. Email me at [email protected] and I'll dig into it personally and sort out something that actually makes up for this.

Well it took 4 weeks to ship part of my order. When I order, I expect it to be fullfilled within 1-2 business days and received within a week. There was no updates, no status, no we're sorry. And when I inquired, I was just gaslighted - "oh, we are preparing your order to ship"
The glasses are fantastic though. Simple, elegant, and light.

Thank you for this — the honest part and the kind part.
Four weeks isn't the experience we want anyone to have, and going quiet on top of it made it worse. You shouldn't have had to chase us, and "we're preparing your order" isn't an update. That's on us.
We're working through a backlog of pre-orders right now, and we're fixing how we communicate while we do it — real status, before you have to ask for it.
If anything from your order is still outstanding, email me directly at [email protected] and I'll sort it out personally.
Glad the glasses found their place.
— Joe, Fable
