Click to view
Noted in Cabestany, Matas & Palau (2005) as a round baptismal font with decoration so eroded now that one can hardly discern the anthropomorfic and geometric motifs; in the midst of the ruined church; the authors suggest attribution to a local rural workshop of the late 12th or early 13th century. The font consists of a round irregular basin carved with deep incisions of chiefly geometric form; the decoration covers the sides and even part of the upper surface of the upper rim; in the upper rim remains a metal staple from an old font cover locking system; there is a centre drain hole in the basin; the stem of the base is round, but appears to have been filled with rubble that cements the font agaisnt the west wall. No cover present.
