Yes and no...

Riv has had a big mixte offer.

The Glorius => became the Foy => became the Cheviot => became the Clem L. 
>From a coverage perspective, just about everyone who wants a mixte, over 
the last 15 years has been covered. Plus, each iteration has been further 
budgetized which suggests the market is thin.  

You could go custom. But I suggest the collector's route might be 
satisfying. The Glorius/Saluki I bought for my wife this spring is utterly 
amazing. It's Toyo. I don't think you can find a better road mixte... even 
custom. It's got all the knowledge Grant had for the Saluki/Hilson series 
of Country Bikes, which is significant, with a huge throw down for 
over-the-top construction details. 

If I was going to throw $$$ at a Riv today, I be scouring the list for a 51 
Appaloosa, not a mixte.  We have a 55 (too big for me, but works for my 
son). It's the best bike I've ever seen. And I have a beautiful Toyo era 
Atlantis. My second choice would be a Clem L. There's no reason for Riv to 
do an anniversary mixte when they have the most distilled design for an 
all-rounder step thru possible for $1650.

Good luck with your venture. :-)
