This article is about the block called smooth stone. For the regular stone, see Stone. For other kinds of stone, see Rock.
Smooth stone is a variant of stone made by smelting regular stone.
Obtaining[]
Breaking[]
Smooth stone requires a pickaxe to be mined, in which case it drops itself. When mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

History[]
Java Edition Beta | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1.3 | Added smooth stone. | ||||
There are actually twelve smooth stone blocks, which are visually identical. | |||||
Smooth stone slabs arose as a double slab form of the "seamless" stone slab block, and would drop two of their single versions when broken. | |||||
Its inclusion within the game was likely accidental, as this version also added sandstone, cobblestone and petrified oak slabs to the game; as such, the four[verify] remaining data values were left undefined, and probably defaulted to using the smooth stone slab texture due to it being the default texture for its block ID, but applying it to all sides instead. | |||||
These are currently obtainable only through inventory editing. | |||||
1.7.3 | Changes to piston mechanics now allow for the creation of block transmutation machines, allowing for smooth stone (4-7, obtainability of 8-15 unknown[needs testing]) to be obtained in survival without inventory editors. | ||||
1.8 | Pre-release | With the addition of brick slabs and stone brick slabs, two of the smooth stone blocks have been effectively replaced with the double slabs of these, effectively removing them in the game and leaving only two remaining visually-identical smooth stone blocks. | |||
Java Edition | |||||
1.2.1 | 1.2 | The ability to place slabs in the top half of blocks has removed up to six of the smooth stone blocks.[verify] | |||
1.4.6 | 12w49a | With the addition of nether brick slabs, the nether brick double slab replaces one of the two remaining smooth stone blocks, leaving only one smooth stone block behind. | |||
1.5 | 13w02a | With the addition of quartz slabs, the final smooth stone block has been completely replaced, removing smooth stone from the game. | |||
January 22, 2013 | Jeb says that smooth stone will be reintroduced as data value 8 of the double slab block, also hinting at the introduction of smooth sandstone. | ||||
January 22, 2013 | Jeb says that smooth stone may become legitimately obtainable as a block in the future. | ||||
13w04a | Double slab blocks have been intentionally changed such that double slabs with metadata 8-15 look identical to those with 0-7, except that they use the top texture on all sides instead. As a result, smooth stone has been reintroduced to the game with metadata value 8. | ||||
It now drops two regular smooth stone slabs (then known simply as stone slabs) when broken. | |||||
1.13 | 17w47a | Smooth stone has now been given its current name; previously it would have been referred to simply as "Stone Slab". | |||
Smooth stone has been added to the creative inventory. | |||||
Smooth stone now drops itself when mined with a pickaxe, rather than two smooth stone slabs. | |||||
1.14 | 18w43a | Smooth stone can now be obtained by smelting stone. | |||
The texture of smooth stone has been changed. | |||||
Smooth stone is now used to craft smooth stone slabs (the slab types simply known as "stone slabs" before this version). They are no longer crafted from normal stone, as that recipe now yields new proper stone slabs which actually look like stone. | |||||
18w48a | Smooth stone now generates in the updated plains villages. | ||||
18w49a | Smooth stone now generates in the updated savanna villages and the new snowy tundra villages. | ||||
Smooth stone can now be found in chests in village mason houses. | |||||
18w50a | Smooth stone can now be used to craft a blast furnace. | ||||
1.20 | 23w12a | Smooth stone now generates in trail ruins. | |||
Bedrock Edition | |||||
1.9.0 | beta 1.9.0.0 | Added smooth stone. | |||
Smooth stone can be obtained by smelting stone. | |||||
Smooth stone can be used to craft smooth stone slabs. | |||||
1.10.0 | beta 1.10.0.3 | Smooth stone now generates in the new villages. | |||
Smooth stone can now used to craft blast furnaces. | |||||
The texture of smooth stone has been changed. | |||||
1.11.0 | beta 1.11.0.1 | Smooth stone can now be found in village mason chests. | |||
Legacy Console Edition | |||||
1.88 | Added smooth stone. | ||||
1.90 | The texture of smooth stone has been changed. |
