The boho revival is upon us, and Walton Goggins is tapping in with his stunning capiz shell pendant light. In a serendipitous parallel to his character in The White Lotus, the actor embraces a relaxed, world traveller aesthetic in his upstate New York dining room. His striking chandelier defines the space.
We spotted his dining room lighting in an Instagram post shared by the photographer who captured Walton's home, Kate S. Jordan. It hangs at the end of a long wood table, in a sphere of capiz shells dangling from iron chains. Behind the table, cream built-in shelves are home to a variety of books, sculptures, and pictures. A fireplace and gallery wall of warm-toned art bring a decidedly cozy feel to the space.
What is so trendsetting about Goggins's chandelier? The innovative material, for one. Capiz shells have been appearing across the interiors space in 2025, featuring everywhere from light fixtures, to decorative objects, to finishes. A spokesperson from Arte, the luxury wallcovering company whose latest collection features Capiz shells, explains: 'During the Spanish colonial period, capiz shells were often used in windows instead of glass as they were easier to obtain and also filtered the light beautifully. Although the Latin name of this shell is ‘Placuna placenta’, capiz shells are more commonly referred to as windowpane oysters due to their delicate, glass-like appearance.' With a focus on natural materials and timeless beauty, they tick every box to appear as a 2025 interior design trend.

This delicate and stunning capiz shell pendant light brings a stunning shimmer into any dining room. This version of Walter Goggins' lighting comes at an accessible price point.
For a more coastal take on the shell chandelier look, this geometrically designed version works perfectly for a beachside or farmhouse home. I absolutely love the brass accents.
These antique-style candle holders bring a rich, storied feel. They sit at varied heights to make any room more interesting. If you use pendant lighting, candlesticks like these can help offset the look and make it less severe.
Another element that will make Walton's chandelier an enduring dining room trend is its placement. In recent years, designers had moved away from pendants, chandeliers, and other 'focal point' lighting fixtures in favor of recessed lighting. However, Goggins's choice signifies a nostalgic return. The unique chandelier fits into the styles of intentional clutter and slow decorating, wherein a variety of seemingly discordant items are combined for a homey feel.
Bohemian style is one of the most fun and interesting emerging trends. With the right lighting, it's easy to recreate the style in your home.
