There are a few different types of warping items in Stardew Valley, but the main two are totems and obelisks. Obelisks are a permanent fixture on the player’s farm, but can be incredibly expensive to build. Warp Totems, on the other hand, are consumed on use but are much cheaper to craft. Here’s a quick breakdown of the crafting recipes for each totem.
Warp Totem: Beach
As the name implies, this totem will take the player to the Beach south of Pelican Town, where they can fish in the ocean or forage along the shore. Players receive this crafting recipe at Foraging Level 6, which takes the following ingredients:
1 Hardwood 2 Coral 10 Fiber
The player will receive five Beach warp totems upon completing the Ocean Fishing Bundle in the Fish Tank at the Community Center. They also have a small chance to find one in a Fishing Pond populated by Lobster, Crabs, Cockles, Shrimp, Mussels, or Oysters.
Warp Totem: Mountain
When used, the Warp Totem: Mountains will take the player to the area northeast of Pelican Town, near Robin’s house. Here, players can do some lake fishing, visit the carpentry shop or Adventurer’s Guild, or head to the Mines to dig up ore and gems.
The recipe is received at Foraging Level 7 and uses the following items:
1 Hardwood 1 Iron Bar 25 Stone

Like some other Warp Totems, the Mountain totem has a small chance to be produced by Fish Ponds — in this case, by those containing Snails, Periwinkle, or Crayfish.
Warp Totem: Farm
This warp totem is always a handy one to take on long or dangerous expeditions. If players need to quickly teleport home from the Mines or Skull Cavern to avoid dying or passing out from exhaustion, the Warp Totem: Farm is an easy out. Available at Foraging Level 8, this recipe requires the following items:
1 Hardwood 1 Honey 20 Fiber
The only Fish Pond that may produce a Warp Totem: Farm is one populated with Blobfish. Players also have a chance to find a pack of five when opening treasure chests in Skull Cavern.
Warp Totem: Desert
Getting to Calico Desert early is key when trying to dig deep in Skull Cavern — and this Warp Totem can do the job much quicker than Pam’s bus. Unlike most Warp Totems, the Desert totem is purchasable, and can be bought from the Desert Trader for 3 Omni Geodes.

Of course, for those who want to save their geodes. and craft their own totems, the player can also purchase the recipe from the Desert Trader in exchange for 10 Iridium Bars. The recipe requires the following items:
2 Hardwood 1 Coconut 4 Iridium Ore
Warp Totem: Island
There’s no need to rely on Willy’s boat for trips to Ginger Island. The Warp Totem: Island can transport the player to the tropics immediately. The recipe price is a little steep, as players must purchase it for 10,000g from the Volcano Dwarf in the Volcano Dungeon. Note that in order to do business with the Volcano Dwarf, the player must first learn the dwarf language by donating all four Dwarf Scrolls to the museum.
Once the player has the Warp Totem: Island recipe, they’ll need these items to craft it:
5 Hardwood 1 Dragon Tooth 1 Ginger
