Listed and illustrated in Palissy [ref.: PM60000821]: "Les fonts baptismaux se composent d'une cuve moulurée de cannelures verticales posée sur un haut socle de plan carré et couronnée par une bordure également de plan carré. De chacun des angles du socle s'élève un groupe de trois colonnettes groupées, couronnées de chapiteaux à feuilles lisses, verticales et juxtaposées. Ces groupes de colonnettes supportent la bordure supérieure des fonts baptismaux. La cuve est circulaire. [...] Cuve fendue sur son pourtour. Peinture moderne. [...] Les fonts baptismaux peuvent être datés par leur décor du 12e siècle." 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] with date in the 11th century. The font here, much like the one at Saint-Eusoye, is of a type that has a square frame with an apparent suspended hemispherical basin, the surface of the later decorated with a ribbed pattern; thecolumns at the angles resemble clusters of three, with decorated capitals. There is evidence at the upper rim of former cover anchorings and the resulting damage. The font is covered in modern paint. No font cover present.
