Glass Pane in villager trading
Glass Pane is a raw-material trade: villagers pay emeralds for it, which makes it a candidate for an automated emerald farm rather than something you purchase back.
A crafting grid makes 16 at a time from 6 × glass. Breaking a placed one back out needs Silk Touch.

Your odds of finding Glass Pane
A villager only shows part of its trade table, so knowing who trades glass pane is not the same as getting it. The friendliest roll here is the cartographer (apprentice): 25% of them carry it, so it takes about 4 of them on average before one does.
| Villager | Tier | Villagers with this offer | Rolls to see it | Most from one villager | After a cure |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cartographer | Apprentice | 25% (2 in 8)same in Bedrock | about 4 | 24 emeralds a day2 restocks a day | 5 glass panewas 11, 6 off |
The chance is the draw size over the pool size in the game's own trade set file for that tier. The Bedrock line under it is the same sum on Bedrock's own table, which splits a tier into groups and draws out of each one separately, so the two editions often disagree. The day figure is the trade's use limit times the 2 restocks a villager is allowed per in-game day (Villager.allowedToRestock), so it is a ceiling and not an average: it assumes you are there for every restock. The cure column is 125 reputation times the trade's own multiplier, floored, and never takes a cost below one. Counted from the game's own draw sizes. How that check works.
Who trades Glass Pane, and at what price
To sell Glass Pane for emeralds, bring it to a Cartographer at the Apprentice tier (11 units per 1 emerald).
Is trading Glass Pane worth it?
The best rate any villager offers is an emerald per 11 glass panes, from the Cartographer, and 1 of the other 2 pays out faster. No villager sells glass pane back, so it is emeralds out and nothing in.
Glass Pane against the other 71 ways to earn an emerald
One slot at the Cartographer takes 11 glass panes a trade, 12 trades, 12 emeralds. 8 of the 72 villagers that pay emeralds, emptied out:
| A full slot of | To | Emeralds | Worth in Glass Pane |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 acacia boats | master Fisherman | 12 | 132 glass panes |
| 48 books | apprentice Librarian | 12 | 132 glass panes |
| 48 scutes | expert Leatherworker | 12 | 132 glass panes |
| 160 coal | novice Fisherman | 16 | 176 glass panes |
| 240 beetroot | novice Farmer | 16 | 176 glass panes |
| 256 granite | journeyman Mason | 16 | 176 glass panes |
| 288 gray wool | novice Shepherd | 16 | 176 glass panes |
| 384 paper | novice Librarian | 16 | 176 glass panes |
12 acacia boats against 288 paper for the same 12 emeralds, 24 times the carrying, and the shortest wait is the Fisherman at 7.5 real minutes of shelf, gathering not counted. Glass Pane itself pays 11 an emerald, so 36 of the 72 ask less and 35 ask more.
How Glass Pane trading works
Every glass pane offer here locks after 12 uses, and a villager restocks up to twice per Minecraft day, so one is good for 24 of these trades a day and no more.
The earliest glass pane shows up is the Cartographer's Apprentice tier, level 2 of five, which a villager reaches at 10 trade experience. A freshly employed one is 1 tier short of offering glass pane at all.
How long Glass Pane takes in real time
132 glass panes empty one slot at the Cartographer, 2400 ticks (Villager.allowedToRestock) at 20 a second (TickRateManager) refill it 2 real minutes later, and the 24000-tick villager day (Timelines) holds 2 of those fills in 20 real minutes.
So one cartographer moves 264 glass panes against 24 emeralds a Minecraft day, 11 glass panes every 50 real seconds, 1.2 emeralds a real minute. 64 glass panes fit inside one of those slots, refill untouched.
Tips for trading Glass Pane
- One villager, one restock: the Cartographer pays an emerald per 11 glass panes and that slot runs 12 trades, so 132 glass panes (2.1 stacks) is all one will take before it locks, for 12 emeralds in total.
- Where they go back: that Cartographer also sells empty maps at 7 emeralds each, its cheapest offer.
- Also on the Cartographer's list: village explorer map, compass, swamp explorer map, jungle explorer map, ocean explorer map, trial chambers map.
