The entry for this church in the parish site [https://ug.lubin.pl/kosciol-parafialny-w-szklarach-gornych/] [accessed 18 January 2024] mentions two baptismal fonts in this church: a Gothic font of the 14th century and a late-Renaissance font of the late-16th century ["Ponadto wymienić należy także dwie wspaniałe chrzcielnice: gotycką z XIV wieku i późnorenesansową z końca XVI wieku"]. The Gothic font consists of a roughly-hemispherical basin that retains some of the trefoiled arch-head pattern that adorned the upper sides, but has lost much of it as the upper rim has been trimmed off; the short round stem has a single moulding; the octagonal lower base has, like the basin, lost much of the trefoiled decoration it once had. No cover present.
