Click to view
The only available source shows a smallish flat basin with the characteristic blind arcade of the local Romanesque fonts, more like that of a holy-water stoup; it is perched on a recycled Ionic-style capital, a stump of a column and a tore-and-scotia columnar base (a/p photograph in Ruiz Montejo, 1992). Nieto Taberné (2000: 52) describes the font as monolithic, and mentions two holy-water stoups of the same period.
