How to Craft Cyan Stained Glass in Minecraft

Cyan Stained Glass in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own block model. Colored transparent windows. Minecraft has used the name Cyan Stained Glass since 1.7.2.

Feed a Crafting Table 8 Glass and 1 Cyan Dye and Cyan Stained Glass comes back. Read it row by row: three Glass, then two Glass in the left and right columns and a Cyan Dye in the middle column, then three Glass. That comes out as 8 Cyan Stained Glass.

Cyan Stained Glass Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Cyan Stained Glass is minecraft:cyan_stained_glass. In commands the namespace may be left off, so cyan_stained_glass works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.

Give yourself one
/give @p cyan_stained_glass
Give a full stack of 64
/give @p cyan_stained_glass 64
Give it to a named player
/give Steve cyan_stained_glass 1

Cheats have to be on for Cyan Stained Glass to appear this way, and the same command works on Bedrock Edition, where the name is written the same.

Can you craft Cyan Stained Glass without a crafting table?

What is the item ID for Cyan Stained Glass in Minecraft?
In Java 26.2 the Cyan Stained Glass goes by minecraft:cyan_stained_glass; cyan_stained_glass without the namespace does the same job in a command.
