The Warwick vase was a Roman marble vase discovered by Gavin Hamilton at Hadrian's Villa in 1771, where he had sought and was given permission to excavate the marshes on the site, where it was discovered in need of restoration. It was sold to Sir William Hamilton, who passed it to his nephew Sir George Greville, 2nd Earl of Warwick, where it was placed in the gardens of Warwick castle.
