Nether Brick item in Minecraft

Present since 1.0 or earlier Stack size: 64

A Nether Brick is netherrack baked in a furnace, the building piece of Nether bricks.

It is obtained in the Furnace from Netherrack.

What it does

Four of them make a block of Nether Bricks, the dark stone of Nether fortresses. Two nether bricks with two Nether Wart make Red Nether Bricks, and nether bricks also go into the Nether Brick Fence recipe.

Since Netherrack is everywhere in the Nether and smelts fast, Nether bricks are a cheap, fire-proof material for builds on both sides of the portal.
