To my not very experienced eye but just from the design and the canes it does look as though it might be Strathearn..... not sure of the y cane though.... however what does seem totally wrong to me is the base.
I do have a Vasart weight with an identical base but if I look at it from side on the dimensions appear all wrong and mine, and very possibly this one, has been ground down at a later date.
try the very excellent smugmug.com site for a superb display of Strathern as you may well find it here.

Regards

Gareth
