The cap is 3-8 cm across, convex in young mushrooms, later becoming funnel-shaped with a clearly sunken center and often a small pointed bump in the central hollow. The color is cinnamon-orange, brick, reddish-brown — more intense in young mushrooms and lighter in mature ones. The surface is silky-matte and smooth. The cap skin is thin.

The cap is very large: 8-20 cm across, convex with an inrolled margin in young mushrooms, later becoming funnel-shaped with a sunken center and a characteristic small brown bump in the central hollow. The color is pale ochre, creamy-reddish, darker in wet weather and lighter in dry weather. The surface is silky-matte and smooth; the margin is often wavy and slightly wrinkled.

The underside has gills. The gills are crowded, thin, strongly decurrent down the stem. Whitish to cream, turning cream-ochre with age. The spore print is white to pale cream.
