Backported Shelves

Shelves from Minecraft's upcoming game drop!
While a shelf is powered by redstone, its front texture changes to reflect that it's powered; when placed next to each other, up to 3 powered shelves will connect.

Description

Cherry Shelves on the side of a plains village house, powered by redstone torches

A shelf is a functional block that can hold and display up to three stacks of items. It comes in twelve different wood variants and is crafted from six matching blocks of any stripped log, stripped stem, or block of stripped bamboo.


A crafting recipe: six matching blocks of any stripped log, stripped stem, or block of stripped bamboo produces 6 corresponding shelves

The shelf can store up to 3 item stacks:

  • Interacting with any of the 3 slots on its front swaps the player's main hand item with the content of that slot.
  • The shelf displays all items it contains in front of it, similar to an item frame.
  • While a shelf is powered by redstone, its front texture changes to reflect that it's powered; when placed next to each other, up to 3 powered shelves will connect.
  • Interacting with a single powered shelf swaps all its contents with the 3 rightmost items in the player's hotbar.
  • Interacting with two connected shelves swaps their contents with the 6 rightmost items in the player's hotbar.
  • Interacting with three connected shelves swaps their contents with all items in the player's hotbar.

It does not matter which of the connected shelves the player interacts with.
