Description

Armor Stand is crafted from six sticks and one smooth stone slab, producing a display entity for wearable equipment. It can hold armor pieces, mob heads, carved pumpkins, and some hand items depending on edition and commands. Players use it to show spare gear near enchanting rooms, armouries, shops, museums, and themed bases.

The stand is more than decoration. It can be moved by pistons in many contraptions, named, hidden, posed through edition-specific tools, or used as a marker in mapmaking. In survival, its main value is organization: full sets of netherite, leather colours, trims, or roleplay outfits can be stored visibly instead of buried in chests.
