exhibition pieces
Museum showcase objects
Objects created or selected specifically for display, typically in museums, galleries, or shows.
Exhibition pieces are meant to be looked at rather than used: The antique chairs were exhibition pieces, not for sitting.
The term can describe anything showcased for its visual or artistic merit, or dismissively, something impractical—all style, no function.
