------------------------------
External issue URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/21331
> [Python] Exception when writing nested columns that are tuples to parquet
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-4814
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-4814
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Python
> Affects Versions: 0.12.1
> Environment: 4.20.8-100.fc28.x86_64
> Reporter: Suvayu Ali
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pandas
> Attachments: df_to_parquet_fail.py, test.csv
>
>
> I get an exception when I try to write a {{pandas.DataFrame}} to a parquet
> file where one of the columns has tuples in them. I use tuples here because
> it allows for easier querying in pandas (see ARROW-3806 for a more detailed
> description).
