Holy-water stoup of a composite nature in this church; it consists of a bucket-shaped basin made of cast iron and provided with four handles located at 90-degree angles on the sides, raised on a stone capital of an earlier period carved with a head and foliage [cf. infra]. A holy-water stoup is listed for this locality in Palissy [ref.: PM58000417]: "Bénitier muni de quatre oreillettes [...] fonte de fer [...] 16e siècle". Also listed in a separate entry in Palissy [ref.: PM58000416] is an upturned stone capital that serves as base to the cast iron stoup: "Bénitier servant de support à un bénitier [...] pierre [...] 12e siècle" [NB: even though the description translates as "stoup serving as base of a stoup", the base is actyally a stone capital]. Only the stone base is described in the Dictionnaire des églises... (1966-) as the base of a stoup in this church; it is actually a Romanesque capital decorated with three reversed heads from which stem interlace.
