Purple Carpet at a glance

Crafting gives you Purple Carpet, a block filed under Utility Blocks. A single slot takes 64 Purple Carpet, a hotbar row 576, and 3456 fill a double chest. As fuel Purple Carpet is thin: 3 per item smelted, 21 items out of a full stack.

Purple Carpet owes its colour to purple dye. It has no plant of its own: mixing one blue dye with one red dye makes two. Purple Carpet is a 0.1-hardness block. Its blast resistance repeats that 0.1, so Purple Carpet offers no shelter. It sits between Purple Bed and Purple Concrete Powder in Utility Blocks, number 255 of 340 there.

    Can Purple Carpet be used as fuel?

Building with it

Purple Carpet costs purple wool, and purple dye is always blue mixed with red, never a flower. That makes it a deliberate choice for a floor, usually in an enchanting room or a throne room where the colour is doing the work rather than the material.
