In the expansive world of Genshin Impact, crafting plays a pivotal role in enhancing your gaming experience. One essential crafting material is red dye, primarily used for creating various furnishings within the Serenitea Pot housing system. If you’re looking to add a splash of color to your abode, here’s a comprehensive guide on how to obtain red dye.

Unlocking the Serenitea Pot
Before diving into dye crafting, it’s crucial to have access to the Serenitea Pot. To unlock this feature, ensure you’ve reached Adventure Rank 28 and completed the Liyue Archon questline. Once these prerequisites are met, embark on the “A Teapot to Call Home” quest. Successfully finishing this quest will grant you the Serenitea Pot, your personal realm for crafting and decoration.
Gathering Materials for Red Dye
Red dye can be crafted using one of three readily available ingredients:
- Sunsettia: This vibrant fruit is commonly found throughout the Mondstadt region. Look for Sunsettias beneath trees or near bushes during your travels.
- Carrot: Often located in vegetable gardens and near rural homes, carrots are another ingredient for red dye. Keep an eye out in both Mondstadt and Liyue regions.
- Valberry: This unique berry grows in clusters on bushes in specific areas of Mondstadt, particularly in the Stormbearer Mountains and Stormbearer Point.
Each of these items can be used individually to produce one unit of red dye.
Crafting Red Dye
Once you’ve gathered your desired ingredient, follow these steps to craft red dye:
- Enter the Serenitea Pot: Access your personal realm using the Serenitea Pot gadget from your inventory.
- Interact with Tubby: Inside, approach Tubby, the teapot spirit, and select the “Create Furnishing” option.
- Navigate to the Dye Creation Tab: At the top of the crafting menu, click on the bottle icon to access the dye creation interface.
- Select Red Dye: Choose the red dye option and confirm the ingredient you wish to use (Sunsettia, Carrot, or Valberry).
- Craft the Dye: Finalize the process to instantly produce red dye.
Utilizing Red Dye
Red dye is a key component in crafting various furnishings to personalize your Serenitea Pot realm. Items such as the “Pine Folding Screen: Billowing Sails” and the “Embroidered Lantern: Lofty Grandeur” require red dye in their crafting recipes. Additionally, certain quests, like “On the Stage, Behind the Stage,” may necessitate the use of red dye to progress.
Tips for Efficient Dye Production
- Resource Management: If you have an abundance of a particular ingredient, prioritize using it for dye crafting to conserve other materials.
- Regular Foraging: Make it a habit to collect Sunsettias and Carrots during your adventures, ensuring a steady supply for dye production.
- Valberry Farming: Since Valberries are location-specific, plan periodic trips to their known habitats to gather them in bulk.
