I have heard that wrapping unprotected metal can create a temperature 
differential in conditions that will create dew, and that moisture will cause rust.  
I think the deal is that a wrapping traps in air at a given temperature, and 
when the outside air gets warmer, dew forms.  You want to achieve stable 
temp/humidity.

And, coat the metal surfaces with WD-40 or such.  If outside in a garage 
where temps change every day, I have heard of covering with a loose cardboard box 
wherein an energized light bulb inside keeps the humidity down...."maybe I'm 
all wet".

Dessicant crystal packages only work until they absorb the amount of water 
they can handle, but are OK if you are willing to keep changing and place 
correctly.  

Deny oxygen and water from contacting the metal surfaces. Probably someone 
out there knows the easy answer.....I remember opening up in 1960 an 
armory-stored,  "Cosmoline" (grease-like)-coated British .303 Enfield rifle sealed up in 
1939, it was pristine because water and oxygen, which are necessary for the 
oxidation (rust) process, were sealed out.

WAIT, I've finally got it ---- tell your wife it's "fine art", put it in your 
temp/humidity comtrolled LIVING ROOM!
