Curved/Crescent handlebars

I was not sure where to post this, but since I am putting it on a vintage bike....

I am looking for crescent handlebars for my Cannondale, I am looking for something simple, no rise, just like this:

I prefer silver, anyone know of a US supplier, or another company?

Soma sells these as the "Noah's Ark Bar"

The Nitto B17 "Promenade" bar brings the curve further back for a little more upright riding position.

Generally known as arc bars. I've used them and like them for shorter trips, but I usually like something with more hand positions. Some on Ebay:

Surly makes or used to make a bar similar to the Soma Arc called the Torsion Bar. I think Origin8 maybe makes something similar as well.

I bought what you're looking for really cheap, but I can't remember where and they're on the only bike I ever sold.
