Description

Chain is crafted from one iron ingot between two iron nuggets, giving builders a very narrow vertical or horizontal metal element. It can hang lanterns cleanly, extend from ceilings, frame gates, suggest machinery, or connect floating details without the mass of fences. Because the shape is thin and directional, it works well in compact builds where every pixel matters.\n\nThe block is mostly decorative, but its visual role is broad. Mines, docks, blacksmiths, prisons, chandeliers, cranes, drawbridges, and Nether corridors all benefit from small metal links. It also combines naturally with iron bars, anvils, lanterns, bells, and polished stone palettes for believable workshop scenes.
