[app. a corruption of It. mocajardo (see mohair) or some variant.
Cotgrave (1611) gives ‘mockado’ as the rendering of F. moucade (not found elsewhere) and mocayart, and he renders moncaiart by ‘silk moccadoe’; a Fr. form mouquayat occurs in 1580 as the name of a material for curtains. Florio (1611) has It. moccaiaro, and moccaiorro, ‘mokado stuffe’.]
1. A kind of cloth much used for clothing in the 16th and 17th centuries. Also attrib., as mockado cassock, mockado doublet, etc.; mockado ends, mockado fringe (mentioned as a commodity sold by weight). tuft mockado, a peculiar kind of mockado decorated with small tufts of wool.
It was made in Flanders and (first by Flemish refugees) at Norwich; it is usually mentioned as an inferior material (of wool) in contrast with silk and velvet, but a ‘silk mockado’ is also spoken of. Quot. 1638 exceptionally refers to mockado as a costly fabric; but the word by that time may have ceased to be generally understood.
