About

Nether Bricks are a solid building block made by crafting four Nether Brick items in a 2×2 pattern. They are the primary decorative and structural block in Nether fortresses and provide a distinctive red-brown texture unique to the Nether dimension.

The block has a hardness of 2.0 and is diggable with any tool, though a pickaxe breaks it fastest. Admins can spawn them with /give @p minecraft:nether_bricks 1 and stack up to 64 per inventory slot. They do not require special enchantments or tools to obtain when broken in survival.
