Oval shape (7)

I believe the answer is:

ellipse

'oval shape' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ellipse that I've seen before include "See pill (anag) - oval" , "Shape - sell pie (anag)" , "Inclined plane through a cone" , "Geometrical oval" , "Egg-shaped geometrical figure" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Times, the Evening Standard and the King Feature Syndicate.
