Noted and illustrated in Carletti & Giometti (2010): holy-water stoup of rounded body with four protrusions at the upper rim; one of the sides has a standing figure of an angel holding a chalice; the other sides are filled with less serene motifs: a figure with a face disfigured by a huge open mouth; another figure with massive hair; large ram head of the Etruscan type (like the ones at the Cascina stoup [cf. Index entry]); a small dragon with a twisted tail.
