Crossword Genius

Colour given in 'Chambers' (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

amber

'colour' is the definition.
(amber is a kind of colour)

'in chambers' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'AMBER' is hidden within 'chambers'.

'given' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for amber that I've seen before include "Orange traffic light" , "Name of female" , "Prepare-to-stop signal" , "Yellow-orange" , ""Stop" traffic light" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
