Rose Gold Alloy - Tools, Armor and More
by Maleficent20
Rose Gold Alloy adds a craftable metal that sits between iron and diamond, along with tools, armor and a storage block for the full set.
What it does
The alloy is made by combining copper, gold, a crystalline spark and amethyst, so the metal is not found in the world and must be forged. Its tools and armor are meant to stand between iron and diamond in the early and mid game, with more enchantability and durability than iron, while costing less than diamond to make.
A storage block holds the whole tool set, and further building blocks are planned by the author. The mod runs on Fabric and needs Fabric API. Both client and server need it, and it is released under the MIT License as open source for 1.21.5 – 1.21.11, with the latest file for 1.21.11 dated 2025-12-17.

Use cases
Mid-game gear
Players who have outgrown iron but cannot yet use diamond can craft Rose Gold tools and armor for the middle stage of a survival world.
Building accents
Builders can use the alloy's warm metallic look for structure details, with more building blocks promised by the author.
Who it’s for: Players who want a mid-game metal tier on Fabric, and server owners who want the progression change on a shared world. Both sides must run the mod.
How it compares
Rose Gold Gear is a Fabric mod for 1.21 – 1.21.3 that is open source under the MIT License and also runs on client and server. Rose Gold Equipment covers Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.20 – 1.21.11 under the MIT License but is not open source. Iron & Steel is a Fabric mod for 1.20 – 1.20.4 under All rights reserved, so it is a different license and version range.
