The solid, pyramidally conical shell is deeply but narrowly umbilicate.

The seven whorls are all, with the exception of the two apical which are smooth and glossy, closely spirally seven-ribbed.

These ribs are thickly and regularly formed of gemmae (buds or bud-like growth), contiguous and crowded.

The outer lip is slightly thickened, whilst at the columellar margin a small central tooth is observable.
