Alternatively, terracotta naturally generates in certain areas, eliminating the need for smelting. The mesa biome, for instance, features naturally colored terracotta blocks. In Minecraft Bedrock Edition, trading with villagers provides another acquisition method.

Additionally, you'll find sandstone, sand, gold, and dead bushes in this biome. Its unique landscape also makes it an excellent location for building.

Types of Terracotta
Standard terracotta has a brownish-orange hue, but it can be dyed sixteen different colors using dyes on a crafting table. Glazed terracotta, created by resmelting dyed terracotta, features unique patterns ideal for decorative accents. Both types are versatile for both functional and aesthetic building projects.
