Description

Light Blue Stained Glass Pane is the pale-sky variant of the glass pane, a dyed window block introduced in Java Edition 1.7.2. The crafting table turns 6 Light Blue Stained Glass blocks into 16 panes, or 8 Glass Panes plus 1 Light Blue Dye into 8 panes. Light Blue Stained Glass Pane drops nothing when broken without the Silk Touch enchantment, and tool choice does not change the breaking speed. Light Blue Stained Glass Pane stacks to 64 and counts as a renewable resource (the dye recipe recrafts panes from glass panes and dye).

A freestanding Light Blue Stained Glass Pane keeps a slim 2×2-pixel post, and neighboring blocks stretch the pane into flat, curved, T-shaped, or cross-shaped forms. Light Blue Stained Glass Pane never lies horizontally, so horizontal colored-glass surfaces must be built from stained glass blocks instead. Six stained glass blocks craft into 16 panes, so Light Blue Stained Glass Pane suits skylights, greenhouse walls, and cathedral windows that need much colored glass at a time.

Guide

How to craft Light Blue Stained Glass Pane in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Arrange six stained glass blocks

    Place 6 Light Blue Stained Glass blocks on a crafting table grid in two rows of three.

  2. 2

    Collect sixteen panes

    Take the 16 Light Blue Stained Glass Panes from the output slot; the panes stack up to 64.

  3. 3

    Use the dye recipe instead

    Surround 1 Light Blue Dye with 8 Glass Panes on the grid to craft 8 Light Blue Stained Glass Panes.

  4. 4

    Place the pane upright

    Set the pane on a block face; the pane always stands vertically and keeps a slim 2×2-pixel post when nothing adjoins it.

  5. 5

    Recover panes with Silk Touch

    Break placed panes only with a Silk Touch tool, because a plain break drops nothing.

Mind the spider gap

One empty block between two Light Blue Stained Glass Panes leaves a two-block-wide opening that spiders can cross, so fill the gap in secure builds.

Frequently asked questions

Where do Light Blue Stained Glass Panes generate naturally?

Village temples never carry the light blue color: natural generation covers orange, red, yellow, brown, and white panes only. Since Java 1.20, trail-ruins archaeology in suspicious gravel yields Light Blue Stained Glass Pane as common loot.

How much larger can a window made from panes be?

Six stained glass blocks craft into 16 panes — 2 2/3 panes per block — so a pane window can cover up to 267% of the area a stained-glass-block window fills.

Is Light Blue Stained Glass Pane flammable?

No. The pane is listed as neither flammable nor lava-susceptible, so fire cannot burn placed windows away.

Does a beacon beam change color through Light Blue Stained Glass Pane?

Yes. Beacon beams change color when shining through stained glass panes, a behavior available since Java 1.8.

Can water occupy the same block as Light Blue Stained Glass Pane?

Yes. Stained glass panes became waterloggable in Java 1.13, so water and the pane share one block space, unlike with regular stained glass blocks.
