Composite baptismal font of limestone listed in Palissy [ref.: PM10002698]: "fonts baptismaux [...] calcaire [...] Cuve de plan carré. Bassin circulaire, avec trou d'évacuation au centre [...] 12e siècle [...] Pied plus récent que la cuve." The font consists of a roughly square basin decorated with very crudely rendered rectangular panels, two per side; on a quadrangular base of later date; the inner well is round and has a large centre drain hole. There are two large metal staples at opposite corners of the basin, and a lead (?) band on the upper rim of the basin, both indications of cover use. No cover present.
