Magenta Glazed Terracotta — Minecraft block

Overview

Magenta Glazed Terracotta is one of the 16 variants of White Glazed Terracotta: same recipe, same hardness, same drops — only the look differs. The full write-up for the set is on the White Glazed Terracotta page.

Magenta Glazed Terracotta counts as a coloured block in Minecraft 1.21.4. Its hardness of 1.4 makes it a normal, unhurried block to mine. Anything below a wooden pickaxe breaks it without leaving a drop.

It drops as the same block you mined. With a blast resistance of only 1.4 it will not survive an explosion. Sixty-four fit in one inventory slot.

Put Magenta Terracotta in a furnace and this is what comes out. It is not used in any crafting recipe.

About the magenta set

How long it takes to break

Magenta Glazed Terracotta sits at hardness 1.4: 7 seconds per block with your fists, 0.25 with the correct netherite tool.

Iron manages 0.35 seconds and diamond 0.3, which makes iron the tier that changes how this block feels.

Below wooden the block breaks and simply vanishes. Bring the right tier or leave it in the ground.

Efficiency contributes its level squared plus one to tool speed, which makes Efficiency V roughly 2.5 times faster than the plain tool.

Properties

With 1.4 blast resistance Magenta Glazed Terracotta goes down to any nearby explosion. It is fully opaque and produces no light. A single slot takes 64, the usual full stack. A pickaxe is fastest here; any other class mines it at bare-hand speed, because the bonus only applies to the class the block is tagged for.

Transparent: No
Required tool: Wooden Pickaxe
