Shelf
Decoration Stack: 64 Since Java 1.21.9 / Bedrock 1.21.111
Quick answer: Craft it: 6 matching stripped logs, stems or bamboo blocks filling the top and bottom rows give 6 shelves - 13 wood variants, poplar included since 26.3.
How to get it
- Craft it: 6 matching stripped logs, stems or bamboo blocks filling the top and bottom rows give 6 shelves - 13 wood variants, poplar included since 26.3
- Breaks by hand, fastest with an axe
Uses
- Stores and displays up to 3 item stacks; interacting with a slot swaps it with your main-hand item, like a visible item frame wall
- Power it with redstone: up to 3 adjacent powered shelves connect and using one swaps your whole hotbar at once (6 or 9 slots when merged)
- Crimson and warped variants do not burn; in Java, shelves cannot be moved by pistons
Renewability
Renewable: every wood type is renewable through saplings and fungi.
Java vs Bedrock
Same in Java and Bedrock; added in Java 1.21.9 and Bedrock 1.21.111, poplar shelf in Java 26.3.
