Green Stained Glass

What is Green Stained Glass?

Green Stained Glass is a decorative block in Minecraft that features a rich green tint while maintaining transparency. It offers a natural and earthy alternative to regular glass, making it an excellent choice for jungle builds, eco-friendly designs, and medieval structures. Like all stained glass variants, Green Stained Glass allows light to pass through while adding a subtle color filter, giving players creative freedom for windows, skylights, and artistic structures.

Where Can Green Stained Glass Be Found?

Green Stained Glass does not generate naturally and must be crafted by players. It is made by placing eight Glass blocks around a Green Dye in a crafting table, yielding eight Green Stained Glass blocks. Glass is obtained by smelting sand in a furnace, while Green Dye is crafted by smelting cactus in a furnace. Green Stained Glass can also be crafted into Green Stained Glass Panes, which provide a thinner and more flexible option for detailed designs. More details about crafting and obtaining glass can be found in the Glass article.
