Noted in Hallbäck (1963) as a baptismal font of the Starrkärrsgruppen made of soapstine between 1250 and 1350. Noted and illustrated in the SHM Medeltidens bildvärld [ref.: 920703F5] as a baptismal font made of soapstone in the late-13th century, the basin of quatrefoiled shape; the SHM entry refers to the group assignation in Hallbäck [cf. supra] and wonders whether this font could indeed be part of the Starrkärrsgruppen, perhaps an unfinished example [="en ofullbordad funt ur gruppen"], given that the fonts in that group have a characteristic decoration missing in this one.
