Crafting Decorative and Specialty Light Blocks
Transparent and Tinted Blocks
Several blocks exist purely for looks:
- Glowing Glass — glass that emits light.
- Clear Lamp and Clear Sea Lantern — transparent lamp variants.
- Vanta Black — a deep, light-absorbing block for contrast.
Craft Glowing Glass from glass combined with a light-emitting ingredient. Use it in windows and skylights where you want illumination without an opaque fixture.
Water-Themed Lanterns
For ocean builds, craft the lantern family:
- Ocean Lantern
- Deep Ocean Lantern
- Deep Sea Lantern
- Clear Sea Lantern
- Abyssal Lantern
These share materials with the standard lamp chain but produce cooler, water-toned light. Pair them with Glowing Glass panels for underwater bases.
Curtains and Fruit
Curtain is a hanging decorative block — place it along walls or doorways for a soft divider. Lamp Fruit is a light-emitting block that also reads as organic decoration; grow or craft it and place it on ceilings for a natural glow.
Mixing Materials
Many of these blocks reuse Lanthanum Dust, Lanthanum Ingot, and gas dusts. Before a big decorative build, gather a shared stockpile so you are not stopping mid-placement to craft more Lanthanum Nugget or Glass Tube.
