Polished Blackstone Stairs is a stair block crafted from Polished Blackstone or Blackstone. It can be placed facing different directions and can hold water, so it works as a waterlogged block.

Players mine it with a pickaxe, and it drops itself when broken. It serves as a building block for steps, slopes, and other shaped parts of a structure.
