Glass, you see, can't be broken with regular tools in Minecraft. Well, not without it shattering into a million tiny, invisible shards. Any experienced builder will always cook up more glass than they need for this exact reason - the tiniest slip and you'll have to make a lengthy trip back to the desert for more sand.

 „
— Duncan Geere[1]

Glass is a decorative, fully transparent solid block, which can be dyed into stained glass.

Obtaining[edit]

Glass will drop itself only if it is broken with a tool enchanted with Silk Touch; otherwise, it will drop nothing.

Trading[edit]

Villager librarians will trade 3 to 5 glass for 1 emerald as part of their tier 3 trades.‌[Legacy Console Edition only]

Journeyman-level librarian villagers have a 50% chance to sell 3 glass for 1 emerald.‌[Bedrock Edition only]

Journeyman-level librarian villagers have a 2⁄3 chance to sell 4 glass for 1 emerald.‌[Java Edition only]

Natural generation[edit]

Magenta stained glass naturally generates as windows in end cities.

A secret room containing glass can be found inside woodland mansions.

Usage[edit]

Torches and redstone torches can be placed on top of glass, but not attached to their sides.‌[Legacy Console Edition only]

Glass blocks adjacent to other glass blocks are invisible when viewed through glass.

As a solid block, zombie reinforcements can spawn on top of glass, resulting in unexpected zombies "sneaking into" an otherwise secure area of a structure.

Trivia[edit]

  • Before Stained Glass was added, there was a similar block named Tinted Glass in the April Fools version 2.0, which had the same use. The texture for the April Fools block was used before it was replaced.
