A bronze Holy Water stoup or font dating to around the 1920s/30s, probably made in Italy. Above the water basin are two angels kneeling at the foot of the crucifix. There is a loop at the top to hang it on the wall. It is well modelled and has an attractive aged patina. Holy Water stoups are traditionally hung near to the entrance to the house for use on entry and before leaving.
