Described and illustrated in Antonio García Omedes' www.romanicoaragones.com as a "plain but pleasant" bastimal font. The medieval font consists of a roughly hemispherical basin raised on a cylindrical basin and a quadrangular lower base with chamfered sides; the only decoration is an incised line all around the upper basin side [We are grateful to Antonio García Omedes of www.romanicoaragones.com for his notes on and image of this object]
