Review Comment:
I believe the issue also raise, if possible, to also actually include the
`field` itself so in case they wanted to catch the exception, they could handle
it more gracefully. Perhaps @vtk9 can provide more on the use case. :)
For reference:
_Even better, instead of raising a TypeError can a more specific error be
returned (such as UnsupportedPyArrowType) which includes the pyarrow.Field
(column_name, column_type) as an attribute so that this error can be caught and
different exception re-raised based on information contained inside
UnsupportedPyArrowType_
