El diámetro de la copa es de 115cm y la altura del tenante de 21cm." A stone baptismal font similar, though not identical, to the one in the nearby church of San Esteban, from the same workshop, according to the entry above; it consists of a roughly hemispherical basin decorated with a torus-scotia combination by the upper rim, then a pattern of broad ribs framed in rope moulding all around; unlike the font at San Esteban, this one adds tiny foliage motifs in the spandrels between the ribs; round squat lower base with moulding. No covver present.
