Usage

Emeralds are used for trading and for crafting emerald blocks and beacons.

Emeralds are the currency used by villagers. They also compact into emerald blocks for storage and can form part of a beacon's payment base. A block can be unpacked again, so the storage conversion does not destroy the material.
