Where Can Magenta Stained Glass Be Found?

Magenta Stained Glass does not generate naturally and must be crafted by players. It is made by placing eight Glass blocks around a Magenta Dye in a crafting table, yielding eight Magenta Stained Glass blocks. Glass is obtained by smelting sand in a furnace, while Magenta Dye can be crafted by combining Purple Dye with Pink Dye, or by using flowers such as lilacs and alliums. Magenta Stained Glass can also be crafted into Magenta 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.
