Large tub-shaped basin with a tapering underbowl; totally plain except for a roll moulding at the bottom; metal reinforcement band below the upper rim. It is a crude work and it may have been re-cut; the chamfered and decorated lower part does not seem to correspond to the rest; if so, the basin may have belonged to an earlier church here or another nearby.
