Terracotta

Hardened Clay is a block with a blast resistance comparable to that of stone-based blocks. It can be stained in the same 16 colors that wool can be dyed, although the color is tinted orange.

Obtaining
Hardened clay can be mined using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it will drop nothing.

Natural generation
Hardened clay and red, orange, yellow, brown, white and light gray hardened clay can be found naturally in mesa biomes. This yields a large quantity of hardened clay. Blue and orange hardened clay can also be found in desert temples.

Crafting
Stained hardened clay cannot be recolored.

Usage
Hardened clay has the same blast resistance as most other stone blocks, which is significantly higher than the block of clay before being smelted. A block of hardened clay when one meter away from an explosion will protect any blocks behind it, though it will be destroyed in the process.

Block data
Stained hardened clay has the ID name.
