Late 15th century seven sacrament font in St Luke's Chapel, Norwich Anglican Cathedral. This font originally came from the lost parish church of St Mary-in-the-Marsh, which once stood inside the Cathedral Close.
The main copper font now used came from Norwich's famous chocolate factory, and was once used as a chocolate vat...... although they do use water for baptisms, and not chocolate.....
Approximate Age of Artefact: 15th century
