{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
*"Cracked Polished Blackstone Bricks" is the current longest name for a block (excluding [[Education Edition]]), tied with [[Pressure Plate|Polished Blackstone Pressure Plate]] (34 characters with spaces, 31 without)
**It briefly lost its place between [[Java Edition 1.17]] snapshots [[Java Edition 20w45a|20w45a]] and [[Java Edition 21w05a|21w05a]], where it was surpassed by variants of the [[Copper Block]]:
***[[Stairs|Waxed Lightly Weathered Cut Copper Stairs]] (41 characters with spaces, 36 without in first place)
***[[Slab|Waxed Lightly Weathered Cut Copper Slab]] (39 characters with spaces, 34 without in second place)
***[[Stairs|Waxed Semi-Weathered Cut Copper Stairs]] (38 characters with spaces, 34 without in third place)
***[[Slab|Waxed Semi-Weathered Cut Copper Slab]] (36 characters with spaces, 32 without in fourth place)
**The record holders in the [[Education Edition]] are "[[Hardened Light Blue Stained Glass Pane]]" and "[[Hardened Light Gray Stained Glass Pane]]", both at 33 characters excluding spaces (38 including spaces).
*The texture of polished blackstone bricks features a very subtle skull pattern. This is intentional.<ref>{{tweet|JasperBoerstra|1376300647646121995|Finally someone noticed! Yes, It's intentional|March 28, 2021}}</ref>
