Where does mercurial keep shelved files?

Unfortunately I've cleaned up my Mercurial shelves forgetting that I had some changes that I needed. I have regular file system backups, but don't know where Mercurial stores shelved files. Can someone please tell me where to look?

Mercurial version 3.3.2

I'm using mercurial from the cli and not TortoiseHg

They are inside the .hg folder for your repository in a folder called shelves.

Note for TortoiseHg uses: Shelves deleted using the GUI will be moved into .hg\Trashcan
