FabricQuiltClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21 – 1.21.1

What it does

Copper Age Backport extends the copper material across several item families, so builders and survival players can use copper for equipment, lighting and decorative blocks. Armor and tools are made from copper, and lanterns, chains, bars and torches add copper versions of familiar light sources and hanging decorations. Copper nuggets are included as a crafting material, and lightning rods are part of the copper theme.

The mod requires Fabric API and runs on Fabric and Quilt. Both the server and every player need it, because the environment is client and server. Files exist for 1.21 and 1.21.1, and the latest build, 1.1.1 for 1.21.1, was published on 2025-10-27. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved. Sinytra Connector is incompatible with it.

  2. Copper lanterns and torches

  3. Copper chains and bars

  4. Copper nuggets

    Copper nuggets serve as a small crafting unit for the copper items, next to the armor, tools and blocks.
