(Original description in Latin) The shell is imperforate (lacking an umbilicus), ovate-conical, smooth, shining, translucent and rather thin. It is yellowish and pale reddish near the suture. The spire is conical, with a somewhat acute apex. It has six convex whorls, which are angled near the suture. The aperture is vertical and ovate, and it is angled at the top.
