Sephardic Judaica

Do Sephardic Jews have different kinds of Judaica that are specific to them and their traditions? My family is Sephardic but not particularly religious and I feel like most of my ideas of Judaism lean heavily on Ashki norms since we practiced very rarely and were surrounded my very few Jews. I’ve become more observant as I’ve gotten older and now I’d like to make my household more Sephardic oriented but am not sure how/if that’s even a thing. For example, do we have a traditional kind of Menorah that might be different that the usual ones or maybe we have unique decor or Judaica that other families include in the home? I don’t know. Any guidance would be great! I’d like to feel more connected to my culture but sadly the people that could teach me have passed away and I don’t have access to a Sephardic synagogue near me.
