Its called a Bigliodromi, they are made in Italy and they are hard to find. Its an engineering toy and usually made by the person that wants one. The photo to above and left shows Anthony Hopkins in the movie Fracture, with the rolling glass marbles. This particular one was a design of the Dutch artist Mark Bischof. It takes Bischof sometimes six years to build a maze. The cost is undisclosed so you can imagine the cost. Lowball estimates of this type of toy are in the $150,000 range.
Below are some links to discuss and study it in more depth.
