Solid fuel lamp comprises closed vessel carrying solid fuel with a tubular wick holder extending upward out of the top of the closed vessel. Its lower end extends adjacent the bottom of the vessel. The wick holder is slotted and carries a wick from the region of the fuel to above the top of the vessel. Upon application of a lighting flame to the top of the wick, the fuel in the wick is liquefied and vaporized and burns. The heat from the flame is conducted down the tube and melts the solid fuel in the wick and adjacent the tubular wick holder. A continuous supply of liquid fuel is provided to the wick. The solid fuel cartridge is mounted in a lamp.
