Dome mountains are only unusual in their approximation to the named shape.
Half Dome in the US is one such, made more conspicuous by having a giant slice missing.
The Mont Blanc Massif in central Europe is another such. Eventually, erosion will cause glaciers and streams to erode the shape.
In Southland, New Zealand, lies Mid Dome, a local upthrust of material, forming a good shaped dome.
Made from light sediments, its longevity is uncertain - but I'm sure it will see me out.
A search for 'dome mountains' in a reliable encyclopedia source will show many such features. Some domes are of interest to the petroleum industry, and Teapot Dome has its particular niche in this field.
