Before Passover, the focus is on cleaning, and when that is done, on cooking and on the table. Decoration other than the table tends to be minimal. The central symbol of Passover is the Passover table, and on that table, the central symbol is the Seder plate, a special plate with spaces marked for an egg, bitter herbs (commonly horseradish), a shank bone, charoset (a nut/fruit relish), and a green spring vegetable (commonly parseley). Some add a 6th space for a second kind of bitter herb (frequently romaine lettuce). The other central item on the table is the matzah cover, usually embroidered or otherwise decorated, and frequently in the form of a 3-compartment bag, one for each of the 3 sheets of matzah that are the minimum needed to hold a Seder. All Jewish festivals also feature candles, typically a pair of candlesticks, but sometimes a candelabra holding at least two candles.
