Baptismal font listed in Palissy [ref.: PM59003024]: "Fonts baptismaux [...] Pierre (bleu) [...] 16e siècle [...] Dimensions normalisées H = 117 ; d = 63". The font consisis of an octagonal basin moulded below the upper rim and bearing four [plain?] shields on the lower sides; the pedestal is also octagonal, of various widths and shapes down to a splaying lower base of the same octagonal shape. The wooden font cover, octagonal, flat and plain appears modern; a lock bar connects to anchorings at opposite ends of the basin top. [NB: we have no information on the font of the medieval church here]
