I am looking into a stone with a .07 - 1.0 girdle. I think it means thin. I am worried about setting and chipping. Should I be? And also what kind of setting would you recommend for such a girdle. Thanks.

Diamonds are very brittle and you can have a ideal cut stone that is IF and if you hit it right it will chip (they are hard not tough). The worst size girdle is a knife edge, the girdle comes to a point. 0.7 to 1.0 is acceptable thickness. I'd set it in 6 prong platinum.
