Make your own! Cut thin strips of contrasting woods and lay up your own design.

Draw your design on a sheet of plywood. Attach wooden blocks to follow the outline. Place wax paper on bottom. Liberally coat strips with marine glue and place them in your pattern. Use clamps or wooden wedges to hold everything in place until the glue drys.

I agree with Sharkbait....build your own.

Here is a link with a description of the process and some photos. It really isn't that difficult.
