   The issue is that parquet doesn't have a duration type - see 
[here](https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/blob/master/LogicalTypes.md), 
and the parquet schema must remain authoritative #1663.
   
   To get around this arrow writers embed an encoded version of the arrow 
schema that can be used as a hint for type inference by compatible readers - 
see #1666.
   
   To support writing types not supported by parquet we added a coerce_types 
option (see #1938). This will need to be extended to also coerce durations.
