Baptismal font, information
Baptism font made of copper with stainless steel interior made in 132 cm. High.
The baptismal font is made up of three parts, a circular foot or pedestal decorated with plant motifs.
The shaft, or central part of the piece, is formed by a central metal cylinder that supports its structure. It is decorated with different plant motifs as well as a knot.
Finally, the cup or glass is wide enough to facilitate its use in the Sacrament of Baptism. Its stainless steel interior prevents possible stains or alterations derived from the use of Holy Water. It is decorated with plant motifs and the faces of angels. The set is completed at the top with a Cross.
The baptismal font is one of the most important symbols of Catholicism because it is where the life of Catholics begins when they receive the sacrament of Baptism. "This sacrament is called Baptism because of the character of the central rite by which it is celebrated: to baptize (baptizein in Greek) means "immerse", "introduce into water"; "immersion" in water symbolizes the act of to bury the catechumen in the death of Christ from where he comes out through the resurrection with Him (cf Rm 6,3-4; Col 2,12) as a "new creature" (2 Cor 5,17; Ga 6,15)."
In many churches, the baptismal fonts are integrated into the structure of the temple, generally they are typical of old buildings. Currently there is a tendency to use mobile baptismal fonts that allow them to be placed at different points depending on the needs.
