Enchanting Table
Enchanting Table — block.
Obtaining
The table is obtained from its crafting recipe or by preserving the placed block with the correct mining tool. Its block loot sequence returns the table itself when the block survives an explosion, including a copied custom name from its block entity.

Breaking
The block has hardness 5 and blast resistance 1200. It requires the correct tool for its normal drop; the loot table itself only applies the explosion-survival condition.

Usage
Use the table to open the enchantment menu. Each offer consumes experience levels and lapis lazuli; bookshelves placed around the table can provide enchantment power through the one-block gap between the shelf and table.
| Input | Item to enchant, lapis lazuli, experience levels |
|---|---|
| Power source | Bookshelves tagged as enchantment power providers |
| Shelf geometry | A two-block offset with a transmitting block space between shelf and table |
| Block entity | Enchanting table book animation and menu state |
Sounds
An enchanting table uses the base-drum note-block instrument. Its menu also has distinct page-turn and enchanting feedback, while the animated book remains a client-side visual rather than a second block state.

| Client feedback | Book page turns and enchantment offer sounds |
| Block entity | Enchanting table book animation |
Behavior
The table has a 16-by-12-pixel collision shape, emits light level 7, and animates a book on the client. Enchantment particles can travel from a valid bookshelf position to the table; the shelf must satisfy both the provider and transmitter tags.

Data values
The block uses the `minecraft:enchanting_table` identifier and owns a block entity for the animated book and menu provider. Its model emits the table's top, side, and bottom textures.

History
The table has kept its core role as the workstation for item enchantment. Modern releases expose the same compact recipe, bookshelf power checks, and block entity animation while adding more content around the enchantment system.
| Current recipe | Book, diamonds, and obsidian |
|---|---|
| Power source | Bookshelves with a one-block air gap |
| Persistent data | Enchanting-table block entity |

Trivia
The book turns toward the nearest player and closes when the table is not being used. A table can be surrounded by bookshelves on a two-block ring, but any solid block in the transmitting gap prevents that shelf from contributing power.
