(Original description) The small, white, fusiform shell has a smooth white protoconch of about one smooth small whorl followed by a second minutely reticulate whorl, on which the spiral threads are stronger, increasing in strength to the end of the protoconch.

The incremental lines are fine even, closely adjacent, and of a silky texture.

The spiral sculpture consistsof (on the penultimate whorl 6; on the body whorl 11) equal and equally spaced rounded cords with subequal interspaces (in which occasionally some fine spiral striae occur) and 10 or more close-set simple cords on the base.

The outer lip is thin, smooth internally, the body erased.
