A font here is described by Vivier-Seguin (1941) as a font lacking in motif ornamentation but ornamented with a series of mouldings which "corrige heureussement leur forme massive"; the basin, the chamfer and the base and lower base are all octagonal; there is (ca. 1941) a wooden dome cover with an orb as finial (Vivier, 1941).
