Good Questions: Sourcing a Similar Chandelier?

Dear ATNY - I'm trying to figure out how I can track down this incredible chandelier from September's Metropolitan Home. I'm thinking it might be vintage, but not entirely sure. Any pointers?

I'm sorry I don't have any good source advice but I do have a WOW! to share courtesy of this reticulated brass globe pendant and the mesmerizing shadows it casts: http://stylenorth.ca/blog/2008/10/rock-the-casbah/

I saw a similar pendant lamp a couple of weeks ago
at Filaments on West 13th St. in NYC. Call to see if it is
still available. It is vintage. Store opens in the afternoon
and closes at 8 p.m.

Target had a knockoff of this fairly recently, but I think it's been discontinued.

They're still selling this one:
