Font Notes: Click to view

Noted in Brunius (1850) as a font made of a reddish marble [cf. infra]. Described in Tynell (1913-1921), who mentions Brunius; Holmbygruppen font. In Reutersvärd (1967). Described and illustrated in Rydén (1995: 86-87) as a chalide-shaped baptismal, located in the "dopkapellet" [=baptismal chapel], in the north transept; it is a typical example of "paradisfunt" [=Paradise font] made of Gotland limestone, with a hemispherical basin ornamented with large ribbed motif (also described as palm-leave), mounted on a pedestal base that is rounded multi-lobed at the top, with a roll moulding, and then splays out to end in a square but still multi-lobed shape at the bottom. Described in Söderberg (1987: 134) as a 12th-century baptismal font at the Cathedral of Lund. Noted and illustrated in the SHM Medeltidens bildvärld [ref.: 950703F1] as a 'musselcuppstyp' baptismal font made of limestone [cf. supra] in the second half of the 13th century; the SHM notes that the stem is a modern reconstruction. [cf. Index entry for the other baptismal font from Lund Cathedral, Lund No. 2, a late-16th century metal font now [1995] in the Domkyrkomuseet [=Cathedral museum]]
