Black Shulker Box
minecraft:black_shulker_boxThe Black Shulker Box is a portable storage block dyed black, crafted from a plain shulker box and black dye, or from two shulker shells and a chest. Unlike chests, it keeps all 27 slots of its contents when mined, making it ideal for moving items in bulk. Its color can be reset by washing it in a water-filled cauldron.
FAQ
Does a Black Shulker Box keep its items when broken?
Yes. Unlike chests, a shulker box retains everything stored inside when mined, so its 27 slots of items travel with the block as a portable inventory.
How do I make a Black Shulker Box?
Combine any shulker box with black dye in a crafting grid, or craft a fresh box from two shulker shells and a chest, then dye it. You can undye it later using a water-filled cauldron.
Can redstone read how full a shulker box is?
Yes. A redstone comparator can read the fullness of any shulker box, even ones that cannot be opened, which is not possible with chests.
Why do piglins get angry when I open one?
Piglins become hostile toward players who open or mine any shulker box, so keep your distance from them when accessing storage in the Nether or near bastions.
