Cunedillar is a material made using the One Power that is considered unbreakable. Any force directed against it is said to make it only stronger and even balefire will not destroy it (TSR, Ch. 54). The making of it was lost in the Breaking and all examples date from the Age of Legends (TEotW, Ch. 52). It is rare, and discoveries of troves of it have been known to make the finder rich (TDR, Ch. 48). The weave to make it has recently been rediscovered, by Egwene al'Vere, whose natural ability with Earth was no doubt an advantage. It was accomplished by a complex weave of earth into iron, with few Aes Sedai having sufficient strength to perform it well (CoT, Ch. 17; Ch. 30). Though considered unbreakable, the seals on the Bore into the Dark One's prison, made of cuendillar, have decayed and broken (TEotW, Ch. 52).
