St Monan’s Fife

Cheery cherubs and oversized vases on the font of 1632 at St Mary the Great, Cambridge.
Vigorously carved I particularly like the figures waving their reading material as if they're desperate to share their favourite article with us.

Kathedrale Basiliek Sint Bavo,
Haarlem, The Netherlands

I like the simplicity of the shape & the wonderful “marbling” of this holy water stoop.

The 14c font in the church of St Tysilio in Llantysilio near Llangollen #fontsonfriday

The font at St Wulfram’s chirch, Grantham. is carved with scenes from the scriptures and dates from around 1496.

The elaborate cover was designed by Sir Walter Tapper in 1899

#FontsOnFriday in St Peter's, Cambridge. It is decorated with mermen at the angles, with forked (or bifurcated) tails, which they hold out on either side to form curves, meeting at the centre of each face of the bowl.

Bold Romanesque decoration, echoed in a similar font in St George's, Anstey.

Just before #FontsOnFriday comes to an end, here's the lovely example from our #ScottishChurchOfTheWeek, St Mary's Scottish Episcopal Church Aberfoyle.

The baptismal font at the Romanesque Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Paray- le - Monial, Burgundy for #FontsOnFriday
Of 11th/12thC origins, it is however not a purpose-made font!

#FontsonFriday
The Grinling Gibbons white marble font in Christopher Wren's 17th C St James Piccadilly is just very, very beautiful.
Adam, Eve and serpent cling to the tree of life that supports the bowl, featuring a relief of baptism of Christ.
William Blake was baptised here 11 December 1757.
