Objects

Objects are a general type of tile which occupy the foreground. Most types of objects scattered across the world during world generation, though some (namely pieces of Furniture) can be manually placed by the player. Unlike blocks, objects do not form terrain and act as separate and independent tiles. Some objects yield items when harvested by the player by using a pickaxe or explosives. There are a large number of objects which serve no purpose, and instead are only used for their appearance.

Each area in Terraria has it's own various types of objects. Here are some examples:
