Overview
Red Sandstone is a building block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. You craft Red Sandstone rather than find it ready-made. Its hardness of 0.8 makes it a normal, unhurried block to mine.
Anything below a wooden pickaxe breaks it without leaving a drop. It drops as the same block you mined. With a blast resistance of only 0.8 it will not survive an explosion.
Sixty-four fit in one inventory slot. The recipe calls for Red Sand. It is an ingredient in 7 recipes, among them Cut Red Sandstone, Red Sandstone Slab, Red Sandstone Stairs and 4 more.
