Built in Holy water font

    Hello all
    Some older houses I have been in have got built in Holy water fonts at the front door.
    The dish on them seems about twice the size of the small hanging type ones you get in most places and also there would be no danger of them being knocked off the wall,
    It would only be a case of knocking the skim and plaster off and sticking it on with bonding or pinkgrip or something like that.

    I have tried a few places locally but all to no avail, so my question is does anyone know where I can get one?

    Thanks if you can.

    I'd imagine you'd have to build the thing when you're making the wall! The inside would simply be a nice glass dish or some such.

    Otherwise you could have a look at specialist church supplies/infrastructure companies, but that would be quite costly, I'd expect.

    My advice would be to get a nice sturdy font which can be attached to the wall.

    This company in the USA is good - they send internationally and delivery to the UK is $19 or so, Ireland would be the same I'd imagine.

    Yes i heard ones in my re class talking about that, just wondering how do they make the water holy or get holy water.
