About
A pair of fabric shears used once on cardboard
Pelora Depot is a sole proprietorship based in Jaipur, Rajasthan, operating online as Pelora Depot (peloradepot.shop).
How this started
A good pair of fabric shears in a house in Jaipur, Rajasthan, borrowed once to open a cardboard carton. After that they dragged and chewed every piece of cloth they touched, and no amount of sharpening at home brought them back.
Cardboard is abrasive enough to roll a fine fabric edge in a single cut. That is common knowledge in a tailoring shop and completely unknown to everyone else, so it is written on every relevant listing here.
One cut through cardboard is enough to end a pair of fabric shears. Nobody is ever told this.
Our commitment
Material stated on the listing
What each pair is for, and — more usefully — what will destroy it.
Edge type named
Knife edge, serrated or micro-serrated, because that decides whether it grips slippery fabric or slides off it.
Told when it can be resharpened
Some pairs can be reground for years; some are hardened and disposable. We say which before you buy.
Our story
The range stays small and is organised by material rather than by price, because choosing on price is exactly how people end up cutting fabric with a paper scissor.
We also give the advice that reduces repeat sales: keep one dedicated pair per material, label them, and a wipe of light oil on the pivot once a month adds years.
Online only
There is no showroom and no walk-in counter. Pelora Depot trades entirely online and ships across India from Jaipur, Rajasthan, which keeps overheads off the price of the goods.
