Listed and illustrated in KIK-IRPA [ref.: 10044508] [http://balat.kikirpa.be/object/10044508] [accessed 19 May 2017]: "Fonts baptismaux [...] ancien bénitier, base gothique en pierre h. 34, diamètre cuve: 50 cm, hauteur: 125 cm [ ...] Date: 1451 - 1510". The entry for this church in the Ellezelles On Line site [www.ellezelles.com/cher/eglise-saint-pierre2.html] [accessed 19 May 2017] reports a former brass holy-water stoup mounted on a Tournai-stone plinth, being now used as baptismal font: "Les fonts baptismaux. Bénitier pédiculé, utilisé comme fonts baptismaux (2ème moitié du XVe). Laiton coulé, Tournai ou Ath, H : 125 cm, cuve : 50 cm. Selon un usage fréquent, ce bénitier monumental est utilisé comme fonts baptismaux depuis la fin du XVIIIe siècle d'après le style du couvercle (orné du serpent ; XIXe) en laiton battu. A cette fonction primitive répondent d'une part, le rebord de la cuve en cavet renversé qui achève le rythme en crescendo de la mouluration associant le support et la cuve circulaire, et, d’autre part, les deux têtes de lion qui étaient soudées sur cette large lèvre (il n'en existe qu'un et des traces de soudure pour l’autre). Par l'intermédiaire d'un anneau, on suspendait à ces mufles le seau portatif à eau bénite et le goupillon destinés aux aspersions liturgiques.Tige cylindrique à moulures multiples allant s'élargissant vers la base qui est octogone. Pied en pierre de Tournai." KIK-IRPA [ref.: 10044507] [http://balat.kikirpa.be/object/10044507] [accessed 19 May 2017] lists also a wall-mounted holy-water stoup of the 19th century in this church.
