That's a very Davidson colour for tankards  (http://www.cloudglass.com/galllerybetweenwar.htm) . I'd say the known colours will now be flint and amber. You might like to contact Chris Stewart so that he can comment (and amend the site).

I think there are green tankards in a similar style, but I'm unsure about the pattern. However, I really cannot say if these are Davidson and may be a much earlier commemorative tankard (George V Silver Jubilee, 1936 Coronation?) so perhaps the 1930s.
