Stone Bricks are decorative blocks that were added in Beta 1.8.
Overview[]
Stone bricks are one of the main materials that stronghold structures are built of. They have the same characteristics as stone and cobblestone, except they have a slightly different appearance with more structure. Due to this appearance, these blocks are commonly used by players for building structures such as castles or used as stone flooring. Smelting these blocks in a furnace produces cracked stone bricks.
Source[]
Stone bricks are only obtainable when destroyed by a pickaxe. They can be found within strongholds or in the basement of an igloo.
Trivia[]
- End Stone Bricks are a palette recoloring of stone bricks.
- Stone Bricks closely resemble real life cinder blocks or concrete bricks.
