Cyan Shulker Box

What is a Cyan Shulker Box?

A Cyan Shulker Box is a portable storage block in Minecraft that retains its contents even when broken. Unlike a regular chest, it allows players to transport large amounts of items efficiently without having to reorganize them after placement. The cyan variant features a sleek blue-green hue, making it a great choice for futuristic, oceanic, and high-tech builds.

Where Can a Cyan Shulker Box Be Found?

Cyan Shulker Boxes do not generate naturally and must be crafted by players. To craft one, players need a standard Shulker Box and a Cyan Dye. A Shulker Box is created using two Shulker Shells and a Chest, with Shulker Shells obtained from Shulkers found in End Cities. Cyan Dye is made by combining Green Dye from smelted cactus with Blue Dye from lapis lazuli or cornflowers. Once dyed, a Shulker Box permanently retains its cyan color while still being breakable and movable with all its stored items intact. More details about crafting and obtaining Shulker Boxes can be found in the Shulker article.

A Cyan Shulker Box is primarily used for organizing and transporting resources. Its cool, futuristic color makes it ideal for categorizing technical items such as redstone components, enchanted books, or tools.

When placed inside an Ender Chest, it significantly expands storage capacity, allowing players to access their inventory from anywhere.
