Javamodern namespaced IDs
1.13+current ID format

Use this page to search the 132 entries currently reviewed in the materials catalog. Each result opens a dedicated page with the copyable item ID and a ready-to-use /give command.

Common reasons to use these IDs

  • preparing crafting and upgrade resources
  • finding ingot, gem, and ore-related IDs
  • moving from a raw material to a tool, block, or workstation
What is the difference between raw iron and iron ingot IDs?

minecraft:raw_iron is the unsmelted drop from iron ore, while minecraft:iron_ingot is the smelted result used in recipes. Commands must pick the right one; smelting or blasting converts raw items into ingots.

How do you get netherite ingots?

Smelt ancient debris into netherite scraps, then craft four scraps with four gold ingots for one netherite ingot. Upgrading diamond gear at a smithing table consumes the ingot along with a netherite upgrade smithing template.

Do materials stack for command kits?

Most materials stack to 64, which makes them convenient for /give starter kits. The item pages show reviewed stack sizes where verified, and the give command generator sets exact quantities.

How many materials are in this catalog?

What ID format do these entries use?

How to Use Minecraft Material IDs

Material IDs are especially useful when setting up creative-mode test recipes or server starter kits.

  1. Search the category by name or the modern minecraft:... ID.
  2. Open the matching item page to check its current ID and any reviewed historical-ID note.
  3. Copy the item ID or customize its /give command for your player and quantity.

Notable Materials in This Category

Ingots, gems, and dust drive the entire crafting economy: iron and gold for infrastructure, diamonds for gear, netherite scraps and ingots for top-tier upgrades, and redstone, lapis, quartz, and emeralds for their specialty uses. Raw ore items and their smelted results have separate IDs.
