Huard (1928) lists a 15th-century holy-water stoup at Notre-Dame des Andelys. Lasteyrie (1926-1927) describes it as "le plus remarquable", being a hexagonal prism; each of the sides with an arch which, argues Lasteyrie, gives it the false appearance of a baptismal font, although it just does not have the right proportions.
