It comprises six to six and a half convex whorls, slightly depressed at the suture. The shell's color varies, presenting either yellow or pink suffusions, with a light red-brown zone at the umbilical area and a band of the same color below the periphery. The whorls are ornamented with short, hooked or zigzag markings. The columella is white and thin. The outer lip is white and slightly expanded.
