Default Small pull lightswitch needed - suggestions?

All,

I need a small pull light switch for a wall mounted light. Something with
any visible bit stainless would be ideal.

It's going to be mounted into a light fitting, so needs to be compact - the
sort of thing that you'd find built into a fitting, rather than a self-
contained ceiling switch.

Any thoughts on a supplier? Would I be best obtaining a complete fitting
from Ikea or somewhere and lobbing all bar the switch...?
