Baptismal font listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/66092] [accessed 30 July 2024]: "Pila bautismal de la iglesia de San Julián en Quejo. Vista frontal de una pila bautismal; no tiene pie y unicamente presenta la copa acanalada". The entry for this church in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/alava_QUEJO.pdf] [accessed 30 July 2024] mentions a font in it: "Bajo las escaleras del coro se encuentra la copa de pila bautismal, de factura medieval. Presenta una sencilla decoración gallonada, muy común en este tipo de piezas." The font is toughly hemispherical in shape, decorated with broad ribs, and has no base present; the upper rim shows two metal staples for anchoring a cover but none is present.
