museum case
Artifact viewing container
A museum case is a glass-enclosed display cabinet used to exhibit and protect artifacts, specimens, or artwork.
The cases allow viewing while preventing handling, dust, and environmental damage.
Figuratively, something kept like a museum piece—preserved but untouched: Her childhood bedroom was a museum case, unchanged for decades.
