Edouard Dufourt studied as a lapidary in Antwerp. There, he studied the carving of diamonds and in the early 1970s became the last hand diamond cuter in France.

A character with many talents, he is at the same time a founder, sculptor and artisan jeweler.

He was also known in the 1950s for his talents as a burlesque actor. On the Parisian stage, he performs burlesque acts such as La Mort du Cygne or an acrobatic act in which he plunges from a certain height into rings of cigarette smoke.
