The shape is generically referred to as a strap sided flask. These were mass manufactured to be sold to bottlers who applied their own labels for their product. Typically one thinks of this as a bottle containing whiskey but I have seen a label or two for generic alcohol. Presumably could have contained other spirits as well.

Your bottle dates to the late 19th century.
