Treasured items from late comedian Joan Rivers' $28 million Manhattan penthouse, including art, jewelry and dresses, expected to fetch up to $300,000 A PIECE at auction

Joan, who died in 2014 at the age of 81, supported several charities during her lifetime and left some of her fortune to them in her will. Her daughter Melissa Rivers, 48, is selling some things from her Manhattan apartment through Christie's New York. 

Pieces included art by Fabergé, a painting by Edouard Vuillard, furniture, designer dresses, a Tiffany & Co. dog dish once belonging to her favorite dog, and jewels by Cartier, Harry Winston, and Van Cleef & Arpels. 

Some proceeds will be donated to Guide Dogs for the Blind and God's Love We Deliver, a nonprofit that brings meals to people with AIDS - which Joan used to regularly volunteer for in New York.
