Re: 40cm width, shortest reach, 26mm, drops?
I recently bought Deda Piega compact with 75 mm reach. They fit a 26 cm stem.

I got a good prices from Tredz

You may even get £5 off for a first order.
To get 40 cm centre to centre you need to order 42 cm. I believe this is common in Italian bars.
Only downside is that the grooves are very shallow.
The only other comparable ones I found were from Bike24 in Germany and were more expensive.

I have these too. The claimed reach is a little less, the grooves are deeper and they have marks to enable one to get the brake levers at the same height. These are centre to centre so you need to order 40 cm.

If you want silver, there's the SOMA Highway 1

Don't remember finding them - perhaps put off by the price!

I came across them while specifically looking for shiny silver, which always seems to be dearer than the ubiquitous black. Though they weren't what I wanted and ended up with the even dearer Nitto.
There's a cost to having taste
(Only kidding, I have other bikes with black bars)

Yes Silver is must do to the current chrome heavy vibes of the bike
