Purpur Pillar is a decorative block in Minecraft with a vertical, column-like look. Players craft it from Purpur Slabs and Purpur Blocks.

A pickaxe is the tool for mining it, and the block drops itself when broken, so it is easy to collect and move. Purpur Pillar is also an ingredient in two other recipes, which gives builders a few more uses for it.
