Baptismal font listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/65974] [accessed 2 August 2024]: "Pila bautismal de la iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Unzá en Oquendo. Vista frontal de una pila bautismal muy sencilla, sin ningún tipo de decoración". The tub-shaped cauldron rests on what appears to be a very short base, but it could be partially buried in the flooring. No font cover present but the upper rim of the basin shows a metal staple from an old cover.
