The shell is medium in size, flat-sided, slightly turreted. The sculpture consists of strong narrow, slightly curved axial folds that are swollen near the suture, both above and below. The body whorl has three slightly beaded spirals that are more prominent than those intervening, the spiral at the periphery the largest. Below the periphery, on the base, are several prominent spirals, the one nearest the periphery the largest. A broad varix is present on the body whorl opposite the aperture. The inner lip callused and slightly detached. [2]
