The second one first, because it's easier. "Reproduction" is sometimes used more or less as a synonym for "weathered." So what you are looking at is basically the Rose hunting tartan in weathered colors. I don't know that it's readily available (Lochcarron shows is as available in my 13 oz listing, but it doesn't appear on their web site, so I'd have to call to see if it really is available or not). In any case, one could have it custom woven.
The first one, the Rose of Kilravock, is a bit more of a mystery. The STA has it in their index, but the coloration of it is more of a pure red, according to their graphic. Since I don't really know where you pulled your image from, I cannot comment on the accuracy. But the STA notes for this tartan indicate Jack Dalgety was the source for this tartan, and the dating is "pre-1985." The notes simply say: "Sample in STA Johnston Collection. No history at all. Possibly designed by the late Jack Dalgety of Forfar."
Again, this is one that won't be commonly available, but I suppose one could have it custom woven.
