Click to view
Baptismal font here noted in Brunius (1850). Described and illustrated in Tynell (1913-1921) as a font of the 'Hörsgruppen', somewhat similar to the font at Glostorp. Rydbeck (1936) places the palmettes decorating the portal capitals in her section on master Mårten, but not the font itself, which is instead attributed to an 'Oxiemästaren', presumed disciple of Mårten's. Noted and illustrated in the SHM Medeltidens bildvärld [ref.: 900809F1] as a 'Mårtensgruppen' baptismal font made of sandstone in the second half of the 12th century. No cover present. Two brass baptismal dishes are mentioned in this church: one 16th-century, the other designed by silversmith W. Crona of Malmö. a 1961 gift.
