The snowdome has a different look than your traditional snowglobe
Just a rounded dome with a large flat base. The snowdome dosen’t have the popularity that the snow globe has. However the snow globes are sometimes referred to as snow domes.
History from Wikipedia.org
Precisely when the first snow globe (also called a” waterglobe”, “snowstorm” or “snowdome”) was made remains unclear, but they appear to date from France during the early 19th century. They may have appeared as a successor to the glass paperweight, which became popular a few years earlier. Snow globes appeared at the Paris Universal Expo of 1878, and by 1879 at least five companies were producing snow globes and selling them throughout Europe.
