About Iron Chain
The Iron Chain is a slim, decorative block made from iron. It is mostly used to add industrial detail, frame doorways, or suspend lanterns from ceilings and overhangs.
Key facts:
- Place it vertically or horizontally.
- Its thin shape makes it useful for rigging and railings.
- Lanterns can hang from the end of a chain.
It does not produce light or carry redstone signals, so treat it as a visual block first.
How to get Iron Chain
You can craft an Iron Chain from one iron ingot and two iron nuggets placed in a vertical line. The recipe gives one chain at a time, so longer runs need a fair amount of iron. Chains also generate naturally in some structures, most notably bastion remnants, where you can gather a few without crafting.
