Classed in Drake (2002) as "Bentheim School; Type Sögel I, Sögel", which includes fonts at Damme, Greetsiel, Grimersum, Kantens, Rijsen, Sleen, Sögel, Thuine and Uphusen. Baptismal font of Benthein sandstone consisting of a roughly cylindrical basin decorated with (top down) a double rope moulding or braid, a vine, another double rope moulding or braid, another vine; raised on a round-to-square base with roll moulding atop, and four couchant-regardant lions at 90-degree angles of the central shaft. Garishly painted, probably recently, though it would probably have been painted originally as well. Modern font cover: low-cone shape with orb-and-cross finial.
