A Cynosura lance's shaft is violet in the center and rose-colored on the ends, with the two colors separated by small, khaki-colored rings. The bottom blade forks into two spikes. The base of the blade and both of the spikes all sport an dark purple diamond set in them, and the edges are silver. The base of the top blade is silver, and the main blade is shaped like a five-pointed star. The top point has an dark purple and gold edges. The center of the blade is dark purple, and the four side spikes are silver. This design of lance is nearly identical to the [[Crux]] lances, except for its color scheme.

"Cynosura" is an alternate name for {{w|Polaris}}, the North Star and part of the constellation of {{w|Ursa Minor}}. The name is, in turn, derived from Greek mythology, where it was the name of a nymph who helped the god Zeus. Its Japanese name references the Big Dipper {{w|Asterism (astronomy)|asterism}}, which is part of the {{w|Ursa Major}} constellation, and also serves as a contrast to the "Southern Dipper" mentioned in the Japanese name of the Crux lances. The Big Dipper is often used to help find the Polaris star.
