3.5 × 2 in oval labels

A 3.5 by 2 inch oval is a slightly wider oval with more room for a name and a description line. It is sized for 12 to 16 oz jars and for bottles such as olive oil, vinegar and craft beer, where a 3 by 2 oval can look a little small.

Artwork advice

A 3.5 by 2 inch oval allows two lines of text plus a small logo; centre each line and size the longer line to sit at the vertical middle of the oval.

For a neat result the surface should be flat over 3.75 × 2.25 in, about 95 mm.

Against 3 × 2.25 in oval you gain 4% more face with 3.5 × 2 in oval; going up to 3.25 × 2.25 in oval gives 4% more. Stepping up to 3.25 × 2.25 in oval adds about $2.34 per 1,000 labels.
