Octagonal stone mounted font with curved basin sides, each decorated with a large rose. The font cover consists of an octagonal base, painted sides in gold on green, large scrolls at the arrises; on it a small platform supported on eight scrolled ribs, on which there are two figures: one kneeling, arms crossed across the chest; the other standing, the left hand holding a banner, the right raised over the head of the kneeling figure; likely a representation of the Baptism of Christ.
