The shell has a white color turning to light fawn at the top of the spire.

(Original description, translated from French into English) The solid shell has a fusiform shape.

The aperture is fairly narrow, not reaching half the total height of the shell and terminating at the base in a very short, wide open canal.

The columellar edge is arched at the top, then with a plicate projection turning obliquely downward.

The lip is simple, smooth on the inside, deeply indented at the top and prominent in the middle.
