Chiseled Bookshelf

256Block states
7Properties
YesItem form

The Chiseled Bookshelf is a block that players craft from planks and wooden slabs. It can be placed facing different directions, so it can be set up to suit the space around it.

An axe is the proper tool for chopping it, and breaking it drops the Chiseled Bookshelf itself, ready to be placed again elsewhere.
