A '''glow item frame''' is an [[Minecraft:entity]]{{only|JE}} or [[Minecraft:block]]{{only|Bedrock}} that keeps itself and the item inside it, illuminated, even in the dark.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
{{IN|java}}, because the glow item frame is an [[Minecraft:entity]], it can be broken by simply punching it, even in [[Minecraft:Adventure]] mode. It is also targeted by commands using the {{cd|@e}} selector.
{{IN|bedrock}}, no tool can accelerate the breaking process of the glow item frame.
{{breaking row|Glow Item Frame|horizontal=1}}
Glow item frame drops itself when it's destroyed.
If the glow item frame contains an item, punching it drops the item, leaving the frame.

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
| Glow Ink Sac
| Item Frame
| Output = Glow Item Frame
| type = Decoration block
}}

== Usage ==
{{main|Item Frame#Usage}}
Glow item frames have the same properties, usage, and rotation functionalities as regular [[Minecraft:item frame]]s.


=== Unique properties ===
[[File:Item Frames Comparison.png|thumb|260px|Comparison between ordinary item frame and glow item frame in the dark.]]

When an item is placed inside a glow item frame, it appears to glow, though it does not emit any [[Minecraft:light level]].

== Sounds ==
Glow item frames share the same sounds as item frames.

=== Block states ===
{{see also|Block states}}
{{info needed section|{{IN|Java}}, there appears to be some internal block states for glow item frames, as suggested by the contents of {{code|assets/minecraft/blockstates/glow_item_frame.json}}}}

{{el|je}}:<br>
Despite being an [[Minecraft:entity]] in ''Java Edition'', item frames utilize block states internally.

=== Item data ===
{{JE}}:
{{see also|Data component format}}
<div class="treeview">
* {{nbt|compound|components}}: the item's '''components''' tag.
{{:Data component format/entity_data}} Unlike spawn eggs, cannot change the type of entity created using the <code>id</code> tag. Data that item frames do not normally use (see below) has no effect.
</div>

=== Entity data ===
{{main|Entity format}}

{{IN|java}}, glow item frames have entity data that define various properties of the entity.

{{#lst:Item Frame|entity data}}

=== Block data ===
{{IN|bedrock}}, a glow item frame has a block entity associated with it that holds additional data about the block.

See [[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition level format/Block entity format]].
