That brings me to the wick wheel of the kerosene lamp, I've found that very often.

Wick wheels usually have serrated/knobbed edges for better grip. I'd prefer a simple drawer knob or something similar to a furniture part.

Are wick wheels decorated like that? I'm not familiar with them.

Yes, there are some really beautiful ones, mostly with floral patterns.

Now, after seeing the new photos, I'm joining your mission as a wick-riding dyer.
