Black Wool Stairs is a stair block in Minecraft. It is crafted from Black Wool, and Black Dye can be used to make it from Blue, Brown, Cyan, or Gray Wool Stairs.

Players place it facing different directions, and it can be waterlogged. When broken, it drops itself, so it is easy to pick up and reuse. It also serves as an ingredient in 15 recipes.
