Baptismal Fonts

Henninger's team has designed and fabricated numerous Baptismal Fonts in multiple mediums. "Because the rites of initiation of the Church begin with baptism and are completed by the reception of the Eucharist, the baptismal font and its location reflect the Christian's journey through the waters of Baptism to the altar." - Built of Living Stone

St. Julie Billiart Church - North Ridgeville, Ohio

St. Julie Billiart Baptismal Font

Custom baptismal font made in wood and brass. Our woodworkers used this drawing of the proposed baptismal font to build it from the ground up. From concept to creation, the baptismal font was a response to St. Julie Billiart's desires.

St. Elias Church - Brooklyn, Ohio

This baptismal font is a combination of form and function. St. Elias Church wanted an attached cabinet and counter. The font was constructed out of marble, wood, glass, stainless steel, and brass.

Regina High School Chapel - South Euclid, Ohio

Regina High School commissioned Henninger's to renovate its chapel, including designing and fabricating this new baptismal font. The wood was cut, warped, and stained, the marble was cut and polished, and the glass bowl was cut from a sheet of textured glass and molded into a bowl by our stained glass artists.

Free Designs and Estimates

Henninger's offers free designs and estimates. We are happy to work with priests, architects, and committees to arrive at a final drawing, then turn it into reality. "The font should be constructed out of material that is suitable for its purpose, that is beautiful, and can be kept clean easily. Such building material would include concrete, marble, ceramic tile, and other choices that can be sealed to prevent leaking." - The Liturgical Environment: What the Documents Say
