Baptismal font made of marble by the Zabreri workshop of Pagliero in the 15th century; it consists of an octagonal basin with narrow sides decorated with the beginning of the Credo text; the underbowl has leaves at the angles and fleurs-de-lys between them; the stem widens at the centre with three mouldings with scotias between, all in the same coloured marble as the basin; the lower base is round at the top and octagonal at the splayed bottom, in grey marble, decorated with a round moulding at the top, and with insert (?) leaves on the sides.
