The shell is dextral, ovate-conic, and slightly dull, marked with somewhat coarse growth striations. It is white, overlain by a tawny epidermis that tends to wear away below the suture on the body whorl. There are 5½ whorls, which are gently convex. The aperture is subquadrate, white, and shorter than the spire. The peristome is thin, and the columella is straight, featuring a small central fold. The lips are joined by a delicate, thin callus.
