   I have the same concern as @emkornfield , using `doc` to determine field 
type seems unsafe to me. I think casting the type should be fine. This way 
there would be type loss when converting Iceberg schema back to arrow schema 
but it should be ok.
   
   Also the [Python's 
implementation](https://github.com/apache/iceberg-python/blob/bdf19ab283f178e54f1647009ec589e6e1839888/pyiceberg/io/pyarrow.py#L1308-L1316)
 can serve as a good reference. Note that Pyiceberg use bid width while 
arrow-rs only provides 
[`primitive_width()`](https://arrow.apache.org/rust/arrow/datatypes/enum.DataType.html#method.primitive_width)
 that returns width in bytes
