Described in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?-) and in Domeño (1992): medieval hemispheric basin with ribbed pattern of broad flat ribs. The upper rim, which has been restored, has three metal staples from an old cover. The Enciclopedia del románico en Navarra (2008) notes that this font was restored, as well as moved several times: first to the front, later to the annex and finally back to its original position in the northwest corner of the nave. This same source notes a few Navarrese fonts with similar -though not identical- decoration in Ardanaz de Egues, Lorca, Eransus and Zunzarren.
