Baptismal font listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/66042] [accessed 9 August 2024]: "Pila bautismal de la iglesia de San Pedro de Elburgo [...] pila de estilo gótico tardío, fechable en el siglo XV. La copa lleva en el borde una hilera de palmetas y en la parte inferior, bajo moldura sogueada, lises envaradas. La base está abrazada por otro anillo de cordelaje y se apea en un pilar cilíndrico rodeado por dos cordones de sogueado". Described and illustrated in Bilbao (1994) as a goblet-shaped late-Gothic baptismal font; the basin is ornamented with a band of foliage motif at the upper side, above a rope moulding; below this moulding is a modified ribbed pattern in which the ribs are replaced by long-stemmed fleur-de-lys, all linked at the bottom with another rope moulding; the cylindrical pedestal of the base has another of these mouldings around its middle; another such adorns the top of the lower base. Bilbao (ibid.) cites an entry in the Catálogo Monumental de la Diócesis de Vitoria. Listed in Arriola Loyola (1996) as a baptismal font of the Gothic period. Noted in Plazaola Artola (2008?). No font cover present but the upper rim of the basin still has two metal staples from an old cover.
