Melanie Earley Reporter from Central Leader

Kia ora neighbours, a bronze sculpture worth about $40,000 has been stolen from Pah Homestead in Hillsborough.

Matthew Wood, a spokesperson for the Wallace Arts Trust, said the sculpture, created by artist Marté Szirmay, had been in the gardens of Pah Homestead for the past 10 years or so.

Wood said the sculpture, made of about 50 kilograms of bronze, was stolen by two men in a silver hatchback about 6.30am on Monday.

Anyone with information about the whereabouts of the sculpture or who saw something suspicious in the area at the time should contact police, on 105 quoting file number 220502/7663.
