Block of Lapis Lazuli is a decorative mineral block. It is crafted with 9 Lapis Lazuli.
Overview[]
Lapis lazuli is a light blue color, with many streaks of darker blue and green markings on it. Its only uses are as a construction block and as a form of storage of lapis lazuli dye. It may also be used for decoration. Unlike other mineral blocks, it is named Lapis Lazuli block, instead of Block of Lapis Lazuli

Trivia[]
- Before 1.6.6, it was easier to craft a lapis lazuli block than any other ore block, because a Lapis Lazuli Ore block drops 4-8 lapis lazuli dye. Thus, the easiest ore block to craft is Glowstone, which although it drops less dust, is much easier to craft due to it only needing the 2x2 crafting grid.
- The lapis lazuli block texture has changed as of 1.6.1.
- Since lapis lazuli can be bought from Villagers in exchange for emeralds, the block is considered to be renewable.
