Listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/66086] [accessed 26 July 2024]: "Pila bautismal de la iglesia de Santiago en Guillerna. Vista frontal de una pila bautismal medieval con la copa lisa y la basa decorada con garras". Listed and illustrated in the entry for this church in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/alava_GUILLERNA.pdf] [accessed 26 July 2024]: "La pila bautismal que se conserva dejó su nicho a los pies del templo en 1974, momento de la reforma, para situarse en el presbiterio. Es un modelo que en nada difiere del tipo que con más frecuencia encontramos representado en los templos alaveses. Tiene la copa semiesférica lisa, con una incisión hacia la boca. El pie cilíndrico remata con una moldura en cada extremo, y apoya sobre una base cuadrada, con bolas en los ángulos."
