Baptismal font listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/66092] [accessed 29 July 2024]: "Pila bautismal de la iglesia de San Martín de Lacorzana. Vista frontal de una pila bautismal de estilo románico; es de una sola pieza y no presenta ningún motivo decorativo en la copa" [NB: although described as monolithic above the basin and base may actually be two separate pieeces]. Described in Bilbao (1994: 121) as a plain baptismal font in the Romanesque style. Bilbao (ibid.) cites an entry in López de Guereñu. The entry for this church in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/alava_LACORZANA.pdf] [accessed 29 July 2024] reports the church abandoned and in ruins, with an undescribed font in its interior: "Hasta hace unos años parece que, en el interior de esta iglesia, se podía contemplar un altar de estilo barroco y unas imágenes de la Virgen del Rosario y San José, además de una pila bautismal. Actualmente se encuentra tapiada y lo poco que queda de su estructura se está viniendo abajo." The round-to-square lower base had some notifs in the corners, now almost totally damaged and eroded for identification.
