Baptismal font listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/66085] [accessed 26 July 2024]: "Pila bautismal de la iglesia de Santiago de Yurre. Vista frontal de una pila bautismal medieval. La copa es lisa y el pie muestra dos molduras en la parte inferior y superior del mismo". Described in Bilbao (1994: 135) as a plain medieval baptismal font [cf. Index entry for Yurre No. 2 for the Romanesque holy-water stoup at Santa Lucía]. Bilbao (ibid.) cites entries in the Catálogo Monumental de la Diócesis de Vitoria and in López de Guereñu.
