Shulker Box block in Minecraft

Added in 1.13 Mined with: pickaxe Stack size: 1

A Shulker Box is a chest that keeps its contents when you break it, so you can carry 27 stacks in a single inventory slot.

It is made with the Crafting Table from Chest and 2 × Shulker Shell. It is mined with a pickaxe.

What it does

Craft it from a Chest between two Shulker Shells, which drop from the shulkers of End cities. Break the box with any tool and it drops as one item with everything inside; place it again to get your items back.

A shulker box cannot be stored inside another one, and its lid needs free space above to open. Add a dye in the crafting grid to color it, and wash it in a water cauldron to remove the color.
