The element that fits this description is sulfur. Sulfur is a non-metal that is brittle, meaning it breaks easily when subjected to stress. It has a dull appearance and does not conduct electricity because it lacks free electrons to carry an electric current.
A nonmetal is an element that tends to be dull, brittle, and a poor conductor of heat and electricity.
Elements that are brittle and dull are likely to be nonmetals. Nonmetals tend to have brittle, dull properties compared to metals which are typically malleable and lustrous. Examples of brittle and dull elements include carbon in the form of graphite and sulfur.
Brittle materials can exhibit both shiny and dull appearances. Whether a brittle material looks shiny or dull depends on its composition and surface characteristics. Some brittle materials might have a shiny appearance due to a smooth surface finish, while others may appear dull if they have a rough or textured surface.
Sulfur is an element that typically has a dull surface.
Non-metals are dull (or they are not shiny as metals).

Metals are associated with being shiny and good conductors of electricity. They are typically not dull, brittle, or poor conductors of electricity.
Dullness is a physical property.
