Elena Graure-Manta is a Romanian glass and porcelain artist based in Germany.
Elena studied under the glass and porcelain artist Clausenburg (Romania), at the Romanian Academy of Fine Arts, and worked as a designer for the Avrig glass manufactory. In her work, she takes objects from everyday life as a basis and, endowing them with her imagination, creates glass works of art from them. In this way Elena Graure-Manta created a series of glass shoes and handbags, and later glass "luxury cars". Graure-Manta's glass objects are very colorful and contain many details, making each piece unique and interesting.
From 1995-2005, the artist owned the Vitrumex glass manufactory in Romania and works in her own studio in Erftstadt, Germany, near Cologne.
