What Is Terracotta?

As per its definition, terracotta is just another building block in Minecraft. While it may seem like other blocks that also come straight from the ground, terracotta still possesses some unique qualities. Although terracotta is not the best building material in Minecraft, it's the only building material that can change the appearance with dyes or by smelting.

You can gather the resources and craft terracotta in Minecraft on your own, but it will take a while. Instead, why not mine it straight from nature? Terracotta will naturally spawn in certain locations in your Minecraft world. In fact, there's even an entire biome full of it.
