Listed in Palissy [ref.: PM60000921]: "Les fonts en pierre sculptée se composent d'une cuve tronconique décorée de larges redents enchâssés entre quatre groupes de trois colonnettes couronnées de chapiteaux sans décor, mais dont les astragales s'ornent de chevrons. Ces colonnettes ne sont pas détachées du bassin central, mais sculptées en haut relief dans la même pierre. La cuve, autrefois aménagée d'un seul bassin avec évacuation d'eau a été modifiée et aménagée avec une demi-cuvette en plomb. [...] 11e siècle [...] mauvais état [...] La pierre est rongée et entièrement repeinte. La base des fonts a été refaite en plâtre." Noted in 'Cuves baptismales et fonts baptismaux : évolution formelle avant le XVIe siècle' [www.culture.gouv.fr/documentation/memoire/CATALOGUES/fontsbapt/fontsbapt_histav16e/html/fontsbapt_histav16e.html] [accessed 28 February 2016]. The font consists of a square basin with slightly tapering sides designed in a trompe-l'œil shape that has clusters of three colonnettes at the angles, while the sides are carved as if there were a rounded bowl with ribbed sides suspended inside; the colonnettes have capitals and there are mouldings on some of them, some roll, some rope; the squat base has two thick roll mouldings. The inner well has been modified and now has metal liner that covers only half of the basin. The wooden font cover is flat and plain, and has a latch to secure it to the side of the upper basin side. The font is in a poor state of preservation and has had many repairs.
