About Block of Amethyst
The Block of Amethyst is a decorative purple block with a smooth, crystal-like texture. It works well in fantasy builds, cave interiors, and anywhere you want a solid purple surface.
Key facts:
- It is purely decorative and does not give off light or respond to redstone.
- It makes a soft chime sound when placed, hit, or walked on.
- You need a pickaxe to mine it.
How to get Block of Amethyst
You can find this block naturally lining the inner shell of amethyst geodes, and mine it with any pickaxe. You can also craft one from four amethyst shards in a 2x2 pattern. Those shards drop from fully grown amethyst clusters, which grow inside the same geodes, so one geode can supply both the shards and the blocks.
