Love said she was horrified by the theft and was now suicidal.
"They were all I had left of my husband," said the Hole singer.
"I can't believe anyone would take Kurt's ashes from me. I find it disgusting and right now I'm suicidal. If I don't get them back I don't know what I'll do."
The majority of Cobain's ashes were scattered near his Washington home and at a Buddhist temple, with Love keeping the rest.
Nirvana has sold more than 50 million albums worldwide, with classic Nevermind selling more than 26 million copies alone.
Cobain committed suicide in 1994.
