Clorox Bottle – 1952 Amber Glass Pint Size

Clorox liquid bleach has been produced in Oakland, California since 1913, making it one of the oldest continuously produced household cleaning brands in the United States. The amber glass bottle was the standard packaging for Clorox through the mid-twentieth century — amber providing UV protection for the sodium hypochlorite solution while creating the warm, recognizable silhouette that became associated with the brand before clear plastic took over in the 1960s. The pint size was the standard household dispensing format, designed for laundry and kitchen use.

Embossing: CLOROX on the front face with brand text; capacity marking on the body; 52 date code on the base confirming 1952 production.

Condition is good with authentic age-appropriate patina from ground recovery. No chips or cracks. The amber glass is warm and intact throughout.

Dimensions: 7.5" H × 3" W | Amber glass | Good vintage condition with honest patina

The Clorox amber bottle is one of the most recognizable mid-century American household glass forms — the brand name and the amber color together carry immediate household history recognition. Works on a laundry room or farmhouse kitchen shelf as a display piece, in a vintage advertising collection alongside other embossed household product bottles, or as a bud vase for dried botanicals where the amber glass provides warm contrast.
