Described in Sáenz Rodríguez (2004) and in the Enciclopedia del románico en La Rioja (2008); baptismal font of unusual design for this area that cannot be adscribed to any of the workshops of the area; it is, these sources suggests, a font probably executed by the stone-mason responsible for the church itself, ca. 1200; the roughly hemispheric basin has a triple band of zigzag around the lower side, above which are round arch-heads, raised on a cluster of four columns that end in human heads (now very worn), and a quadrangular plinth. Noted and illustrated in Rioja Románica [https://www.riojaromanica.com/categorias/pilas-bautismales#] [accessed 22 November 2020]: "Situada en el baptisterio de la iglesia de El Salvador, que se encuentra en el cuerpo bajo de la torre, se halla esta pila bautismal románica. Es de hacia 1200 y mide 101 cm de alto por 116 cm de diámetro del brocal. De factura popular y tipología en copa, el pie consta de un plinto cuadrangular y un haz de cuatro fustes rematados en cabezas humanas muy deterioradas. La taza es semiesférica y se decora en su parte inferior con una línea triple de zigzag a base de incisiones "
