Template:Infobox block Template:Relevant tutorial Clay is a block that can be found abundantly in lush caves, in patches in shallow surface water or converted from Minecraft:mud using pointed dripstone. It can be smelted into Minecraft:terracotta or broken into clay balls which are smeltable into Minecraft:bricks.
Obtaining
Breaking
Clay blocks can be mined with any item, but Minecraft:shovels are quickest. Destroying a clay block yields 4 clay balls. If broken with a tool enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch, it drops itself instead. Destroying a clay block with a tool enchanted with Fortune does not increase the amount of clay dropped.

Natural generation
Clay generates in large quantities on the floors of ponds in lush caves.
Clay can also generate in lush caves in the form of blobs. Clay attempts to generate 46 times per chunk in blobs of size 0-160, at any height. It can replace Minecraft:stone, Minecraft:granite, Minecraft:andesite, Minecraft:diorite, polished graniteTemplate:Only, polished andesiteTemplate:Only, polished dioriteTemplate:Only, Minecraft:tuffTemplate:Only, and Minecraft:deepslateTemplate:Only.
Clay is found underwater in swamps, beaches, oceans, and at the bottoms of rivers and lakes in shallow, crystal-shaped disks, disregarding adjacency to other types of blocks.
Clay generates in mason houses in plains, savanna, and desert villages, and under fisher cottages in taiga villages.
Mob loot
An Minecraft:enderman holding a clay block drops the block upon death.
Generated loot
Crafting
Villager gifts
Template:See also Template:IN, when the player has the Hero of the Village status effect, a mason Minecraft:villager might throw that player a clay block as a gift.
Post-generation
If Minecraft:mud is placed above a block with a pointed dripstone hanging underneath, the mud eventually turns into clay, although the dripstone does not deposit any water into a Minecraft:cauldron. This conversion does not happen in Minecraft:the Nether.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>
Usage
Big dripleaves, small dripleaves, mangrove propagules, Minecraft:azaleas and flowering azaleas are the only plants that can be placed on clay. Unlike most other blocks, clay supports small dripleaves even outside of Minecraft:water.
When an azalea or flowering azalea placed on a block of clay is grown into an azalea tree, the clay block turns into rooted dirt.
Smelting ingredient
Note block
Clay can be placed under note blocks to produce flute sounds.
Sulfur cube
Template:In development Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb clay, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.

Trivia
- In real life, clay can actually be reddish-brown, not just gray, and can often be found under the surface and away from sand. This color is reflected in the appearance of Minecraft:terracotta, Minecraft:bricks, and flower pots.
