Joan Rivers promotes "Diary of a Mad Diva" at Bookends Bookstore in Ridgewood, New Jersey, July 1, 2014. Michael N. Todaro—FilmMagic by [Melissa Locker](https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/) ## Melissa Locker Jun 8, 2016 5:41 PM UTC The world lost one of its greatest comics when [Joan Rivers](http://time.com/3212274/joan-rivers-dead-81-remembrance/) died in 2014, at the age of 81. While [Rivers](http://time.com/3212274/joan-rivers-dead-81-remembrance/) was best known as a ground-breaking comedian, she was also a style icon and it was no surprise when she became part of the panel on [_Fashion Police_](http://time.com/3404805/joan-rivers-fashion-police/)_,_ dishing out biting [one-liners](http://time.com/3270645/joan-rivers-dead-one-liners/) about unsuccessful ensembles worn on the red carpet. Rivers’ sense of style and good taste extended from the red carpet back to her home, which she filled with items of impeccable taste. Now, Christie’s will be auctioning off the collection of luxury goods, jewelry, frames, and one-of-a-kind pieces that filled Rivers’ home. Included in [the sale](http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/salebrowse.aspx?intSaleid=25351&lid=1&viewType=listview) are gorgeous items like Fabergé picture frames and brooches, Harry Winston jewelry, desk accessories from Bulgari and Cartier, Tiffany dog bowls, Hermes silver, Louis XV chiffonieres, European antiques, 19th century oil paintings, and a [silk pagoda dog bed](http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/furniture-lighting/a-celadon-silk-and-passementerie-upholstered-dog-6004254-details.aspx) fit for the Queen’s corgis and much, much more. The full collection is as jaw dropping as some of Rivers’ jokes. The auction will be hold both [online](http://www.christies.com/multidaysales/the-private-collection-of-joan-rivers-june-2016) and [live](http://www.christies.com/SaleLanding/index.aspx?intsaleid=25351), with some of the proceeds to be donated to charity. Viewings begin in New York on June 17. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4361511/joan-rivers-christies-auction/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4361511/joan-rivers-christies-auction/"},"headline":"Now You Can Buy Lots of Joan Rivers' Fancy Stuff","datePublished":"2016-06-08T17:41:25.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:33:08.152Z","description":"Including Tiffany dog bowls","url":"https://time.com/4361511/joan-rivers-christies-auction/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Auctions","celebrity","joan rivers"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt3d3e665d8e7c159f/698897002dce0195299e965c/joan-rivers-auction.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt3d3e665d8e7c159f/698897002dce0195299e965c/joan-rivers-auction.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Joan Rivers Signs Copies Of \"Diary Of A Mad Diva\"","caption":"Joan Rivers promotes \"Diary of a Mad Diva\" at Bookends Bookstore in Ridgewood, New Jersey, July 1, 2014.","creditText":"Michael N.
