About Black Banner

A Black Banner is a decorative block with a solid black base. You can place it on the ground or hang it on a wall, and it rotates to face the direction you were looking when you placed it.

Use a loom to add up to six coloured patterns on top, then copy the finished design onto more banners. Banners stack to 16, so they are easy to keep in a building kit.

How to get Black Banner

Craft a Black Banner with six black wool and one stick. Put the black wool in the top two rows of a crafting grid and the stick in the bottom centre slot. Black wool comes from black sheep or by dyeing white wool with black dye.

You may also find already-patterned black banners in some End city structures, but crafting is the reliable way to get a plain one.
