Java Edition history of textures/Blocks

This page attempts to document the full history of the textures of blocks, their additions, changes and removals. Additions and changes made to the models of blocks, as well as any new blocks which reuse prior textures, will not be documented here. Also not included are blocks which use entity rendering, such as current versions of chests and beds.

Non-block textures
While not being block textures, these textures are (or were) found in the same directories or texture atlases as blocks are.

Developer version exclusive textures
These textures appeared exclusively in development screenshots or videos. They, as raw files, have never been released publicly; all cases documented here are derived from recreations.
