>     You could tether pieces and either hide the tether..." 

    This reminded me of a solution I saw at a gallery's display at SOFA.
    All the rings were out on pedestals, no glass. The tops of the
    displays were opaque plexy. You could easily pick up and handle the
    pieces thry them on, but each one was tethered to a long cord that
    went through a drilled hole in the display where it sat. The other
    end had a weight on it, so if you let go of the piece, it retracted
    right back to where it belonged. I'm guessing that if someone
    managed to cut the tether, the weight falling would make enough
    noise to alert the personel. I thought this a very clever solution!
