The length of the shell attains 32 mm, its diameter 15 mm.
(Original description) The sinistral shell is oblong-conicand narrowly perforate. The shell contains six convex whorls, on the lower portion fading yellow to dull white towards the apex. The initial three whorls are semitransparent flesh-colored, tipped with dark brown. The body whorl is obsoletely keeled at the periphery, exhibiting a narrow greyish-blue band just above the umbilical region, spirally continuing onto the parietal wall. The outer lip and the columella are pale purple, connected by a thin reddish-brown callus. The outer lip is slightly expanded and reflected. The aperture interior is white.[2]
