The present baptismal font consists of an oval basin raised on a baluster-type pedestal base, all in light-brown marble; dates from 1767. The flat wooden cover with ball-topped finial/handle is probably from the same date[NB: the original church "ecclesia sancri stephani de cogles" was dated from the 11th century, but we have no information on the font from that church [source: http://pagesperso-orange.fr/jpcesson/index/Canton%20de%20Saint%20Brice%20en%20Cogl%E8s/Saint-Etienne-enCogl%E8s/Saint-Etienne-en-Cogl%E8s.htm [accessed 16 February 2009]]
