Antonietta Dell'Era (10 February 1860—?) was an Italian prima ballerina best remembered for creating the Sugar Plum Fairy in The Nutcracker (1892). Her first performance was sold out, and she received good reviews. Modest Tchaikovsky described her as "pudgy and unattractive". She was born in Milan.
