The blackstone wall is a decorative block that came with the Nether Update. It’s basically the wall version of regular blackstone, which is pretty useful if you’re building nether structures or want that dark, polished aesthetic. When you craft it, you get 6 walls at once, so it’s efficient for larger builds.

6 Blackstone blocks

You can find blackstone in the Nether, mostly in the Basalt Deltas biome. It’s pretty common down there, so gathering enough for your walls shouldn’t be a problem.
