Bricks block in Minecraft

Present since 1.0 or earlier Mined with: pickaxe Stack size: 64 In 3 tutorials ↓

Bricks is the classic red brick block, crafted from four bricks.

It is made with the Crafting Table from 4 × Brick. It is mined with a pickaxe.

What it does

It mines with a pickaxe, resists explosions like stone and drops itself. Bricks have slabs, stairs and walls, cut on a Stonecutter or crafted, and they suit chimneys, cottages and old town houses.

The block takes a long chain to make, from clay to ball to brick to block, so a large brick house is a sign of patience. Mason villagers sell bricks, which saves the clay hunt.
