3 × 1.5 in oval labels
A 3 by 1.5 inch oval is wide and slim, with a strong horizontal line that echoes old-world food and spirits labels. It works as the only label on a gourmet jar or as a shoulder label sitting above a larger main label on a bottle.

A wide oval reads best with one strong line of text; if you need a second line, make it much smaller and place it just under the centre where the oval is still wide.
