That is so unspeakably rotten. It's shocking that someone would take such a treasured and personal item from you. I hope whoever has it comes to their senses and gets it back to you. I've posted an alert on my blog to help spread the word and get more eyeballs on the lookout.

It's just so DUMB!
As TeaKey pointed out, the thief can't show it to a single person who would appreciate it!! What's the fun of that!?!
If I had a one-of-a-kind piece of art, I'd want to show it off to/share it with the whole world! Or at least all the people who liked that kind of art! Or at least my close friends who liked it! Or, um, my dog???
This clown stole the sculpt to show to his dog, I guess. Sure hope the pooch likes tiki....
Sorta makes me think of the "Just Shoot Me" episode where Nina Van Horne's famous swimsuit poster bikini gets bought by a private Japanese collector....and we see in the last scene his wearing it while boogie-ing in his bedroom. Eeww.

When the culprit is found, can we draw and quarter 'em?...pretty please?!?
Sorry to hear you had such a violation of trust. Hope your sculpt turns up safe and sound...

That gives me some scary visuals of what someone may be doing with.....oh never mind.
But seriously, we've had mass quantities of people through the house as it's been worked on for the past year. Some plumber or electrician could have taken it. It was just in the china hutch in the kitchen and easily grabbed in a heartbeat. Why someone took it? Who knows. Karma will eventually prevail on this one.
Thanks for the blog blast Humuhumu!

There are sick people out there that are in posession of stolen items they can never show off. They keep it under lock and key (so someone doesn't steal it from them), they get their kicks out of just knowing they have it...

I might be way off base but here goes. If you haven't had a breakin and there is no money, jewelry, firearms or electronics missing, nobody flew in from Chicago to pull this job.
Children? Maybe an accident? Any debris or chips around the area where it was stored? Maybe friends of the children? Maybe? Uncrichie...

Not off base at all, Unc. All of that is possible. Hell, I can't find my car in the Home Depot parking lot. Just wanted to get the word out early in case it does show up on the open market. Thus the title "Missing/Stolen". I ain't mad and I ain't blamin' nobody.
No evidence of any kind, just a dust-free circle where it once proudly stood.
Now please excuse me while I interrogate all the Republicans in my neighborhood. They're not very chipper today. hehehehe
