Described and illustrated in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?- , vol. V*: 93) as a baptismal font of the Gothic period; cylindrical basin with vertical sides has Gothic trefoil arches resting on columns with capitals; the underbowl is hemispheric and plain; the pedestal base is round and plain. A circa 1950 image from the Archivo Uranga shows the font with an octagonal (?) pyramidal cover the sides/panels of which are ornamented. Described in Domeño (1992: 134) in much the same terms.
