Description
Bone Block is a decorative and useful block made from compacted bone material. It looks pale and slightly textured and players often use it in themed builds such as crypts museums and natural history displays. Bone Blocks are also useful for storage because they compress a lot of bone meal into a single solid block. Builders like the block for its neutral color which works well as an accent with darker materials. It has a solid feel but is not heavy so it is simple to move and place. Beyond decoration Bone Blocks also help with farms and contraptions where large amounts of bone meal are involved since converting bone meal to bone blocks can make storage neater and reduce clutter. For players focused on aesthetics or efficient inventory management Bone Blocks are a small convenience that pays off over time.
