Baptismal font listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/60675] [accessed 10 August 2024]: "pila bautismal de la iglesia de San Miguel de Faido [...] parte inferior de la pila con ligeros motivos verticales en el pie". Described in Bilbao (1994) as a medieval baptismal font, plain except for some vertical motifs on the base. Bilbao (ibid.) cites an entry in the Catálogo Monumental de la Diócesis de Vitoria. The bucket-shaped basin appears plain while the round-to-square pedestal base has vertical flat piping that end at the bottom in spurs.
