The first whorls are eroded, whitish, the rest roseus, cinereous or brownish, ornamented with a few radiating white streaks.
They are spirally granose-lirate with 6 finely beaded lirae on the penultimate whorl, the fifth larger, more prominent, simulating a carina.
The body whorl is angulate, plano-convex beneath and concentrically cingulate.
The white umbilical area is spirally plicate with a crenulate margin.
