Specialist note

This bowl was engraved for Joan Rivers’ most famous dog, Spike, a cantankerous Yorkshire Terrier who accompanied her everywhere. When her husband died tragically in 1987, Rivers admitted that it was Spike who came to the rescue during her darkest moments. He appeared with her on The Tonight Show as well as joining her on the cover of People magazine and in the ‘Got Milk’ advertising campaign.
