Antique Checkerboard Relief Pattern Mocha Ware Small Cup / Mug pop The apricot is less unusualI'd never seen a checkerboard patterned piece of mocha ware before, but thought that was what this was, and indeed, 'tis true there were mugs, teacups and pitchers made in this pattern, though I have not found another in this blue and peachy yellow glaze combo, which I think is the best. I just love the feel and the silhouettes of these small 19th c. mugs (I believe this was likely a child's cup) and think they'd be a great thing to build a collection
