Archiminolia oleata, common name the shining top shell, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Solariellidae.

Colour of the shell is white beneath, and above pale cinnamon with darker radial streaks on the body whorl.

Its upper insertion is carried far forward, connected with the lower by a thin dull film of callus.

The lip is quite sharp, within a white edge is followed by a brown border anfl that again by a nacreous layer.

The umbilicus forms a broad open funnel, penetrating to the initial whorl, margined by a beaded funicle which ends in an expansion on the columella base.
