Baptismal font (Cauvigny)
The baptismal font in the Catholic Church of St-Martin in Cauvigny , a French parish in the Oise department in the Hauts-de-France region , was created in the 16th century. In 1912, the Renaissance- style baptismal font was added to the List of Protected Objects ( Base Palissy ) in France as Monument historique .
The oval baptismal font made of limestone stands on an oval base. The baptismal font and the base are each made from a block of stone. The edge of the pool is decorated with a bead all around. Two animal heads with an iron ring in their mouths can be seen on both long sides.
