Origami paper in jewel tone colors?

Where can I buy origami paper in colors which are more 'jewel tones' than the usual 'primary' colors?
I received this book as a gift a couple of years ago, and it comes with a package of origami paper in really beautiful colors. There was a deep teal, and a ruby red, and a deep blue... I'd like to find more paper like this, instead of the very bright primary colors which are usually sold. Thanks!

This Origami Sources website lists Bunka Do and Kinokuniya Bookstore in Little Tokyo in Los Angeles.

Depending on the thickness of paper you're looking for.... check out the scrapbooking section of a local craft store. There are loads of single sheet papers available, and some pre-packaged groupings of papers (pastels, brights, etc.)

If there's a Chinatown near where you are, they tend to have variety/general stores ranging anywhere from adorable anime/sanrio stuff to intricate crafts to pots and pans. You'll find origami and star paper and glass jars and all that.
