Described in Domeño (1992: 159) as a plain hemispherical basin mounted on a cylindrical base also plain. [NB: see also the entry for a second font in abandoned church in this village - Larrángoz No. 2] -- conflict? it is not clear whether or not there are two churches in Larrángoz - Domeño lists a font in San Saturnino and does not mention San Bartolomé - the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?- , vol. IV**: 118-121) mentions a font in San Bartolomé but does not list San Saturnino - to be resolved]
