DecoratedPotEarly
by chenjunfu2
DecoratedPotEarly ports the item storage behavior of decorated pots to Minecraft 1.20.1, letting a pot hold items like a chest does.
What it does
Decorated pots gain item storage on 1.20.1 through a backport of features from newer game versions. The port brings the block animation, particle effects and interaction audio along with the storage, and adds subtitles for the sounds. The stack size of pots is set to 64, so several can be carried and stored together.
Several bugs from the vanilla behavior are fixed. An undecorated pot no longer becomes non-stackable after use because of extra NBT data, and a decorated pot keeps its NBT after use so it stacks normally. A cracked state is set to true so a decorated pot shatters regardless of how it was broken, and the pick-block key selects the correct pattern.
The mod is published for Fabric only, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Its files target 1.20.1, and the latest file is 1.0.3+1.20.1, released on 2026-07-18. The code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, which makes it open source. The project first appeared on 2026-06-12.

Use cases
Storing small stacks
