What is a LEGO piece?

A LEGO piece (or brick) is a plastic construction toy component made by The LEGO Group. Each piece has a unique design ID and name that identifies its shape, size, and function. LEGO pieces include basic bricks, plates, tiles, slopes, and specialized elements. They connect via studs and tubes using a precise clutch power system that allows pieces to snap together firmly yet be separated easily. The standardized connection system means pieces from different sets and decades remain compatible.
