1.5 × 1.25 in oval labels
Think of 1.5 × 1.25 in oval as a near-square landscape shape – 38 × 32 mm, or 1.47 square inches of artwork. We checked it against common containers: it works for the top of a 48 mm jar lid as well as the top of a 2 oz tin lid. Text-wise, plan on about 5 lines of roughly 16 characters at 8 pt.

Artwork advice
Design to 488 × 412 px at 300 dpi, keep important type inside 1.375 × 1.125 in, and use 7 pt as the smallest size. Curved edges: text running round a 1.5 in edge reads better than a square block forced into the middle.
A clean fit wants 1.75 × 1.5 in of flat surface (44 mm), giving the 1.5 × 1.25 in oval an even margin all round.
1.75 × 1 in oval is the next size down, and 1.5 × 1.25 in oval adds 7%, and the larger 2 × 1 in oval adds 7% on top.
