Described in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?-). Described and illustrated in Domeño (1992) as a medieval baptismal font ; a ribbed cylindrical basin with hemispheric underbowl, separated by a scalloped moulding and ornamented with ribbed pattern; the cylindrical stem of the base is also ribbed; round splayed lower base. The font is generally worn, but damage has been effected to the upper rim through the removal of the iron staples of the old cover; the damage areas have been clumsily covered with cement patches. Noted in García de Castro Valdés ([s.d.] 1998?) Described and illustrated in the Enciclopedia del romanico en Navarra (2008) as "posmedieval", but in the style of Navarrese fonts of an earlier period (Cabanillas, Ardanaz de Egüés, Lorca, Eransus and Zunzarren).
