About

The Purple Shulker Box is a portable storage block that functions like a chest but can be picked up and moved while retaining its contents. Useful for organizing and transporting large amounts of items without needing a second inventory.

Place it in the world like any block, or carry it in your inventory. Double-click to open its 27-slot interface. When mined with a Pickaxe, the box and all its contents are retained; breaking it with other tools only drops the contents. Unlike regular chests, shulker boxes do not merge inventories when placed next to each other, making them ideal for bulk storage rooms.
