Any danger in setting cut-cornered stones in NESW settings?

[glitterpants]

Do stones with cut corners in a setting with north-east-west-south prongs have an increased risk of chipping of the exposed corners?

Thanks for all your help!

somewhat but in not a lot in that design.
Like with anything else keep it insured.

Avoid thin girdles. Keep it insured. Make sure you loupe it (or have it checked out) regularly to catch any loosening.
