Described and illustrated in Sveriges kyrkor: Närke (Bd. I, hft. 3: 413, 481, 487) as a medieval baptismal font of the "Paradise goup" type, having a hemispherical basin of reddish marble from the quarries of the Hoburg area of Gotland, known as "hoburgsmarmor"; the two-part base is made of grey limestone. The whole font is plain but for a ring moulding at the upper end of the conical pedestal of the base. Noted in Kilström (1981). Noted and illustrated in the SHM Medeltidens bildvärld [ref.: 930816F1] as a baptismal font made in Gotland of limestone in the second half of the 13th century; the SHM notes that this font is a variant of the common 'ciborietyp' font but its provenance is certain [="cuppans halvsfäriska form avviker från den traditionella gotländska ciborietypen, som har cylindrisk/konisk cuppa - jfr Lye, obj-nr 910815F1 - det är dock ingen tvekan om att funten kommer från Gotland"]. No cover present.
