Oriental Shorthair Breed Numbers and Colours - EMS

An EMS breed code starts with a three letter upper case code denoting the basic breed (OLH for Oriental Long hairs and Variants). This is followed by one or more lower case letters describing the colour (the same regardless of the breed) and then a number of pairs of digits (in ascending numerical order) describing pattern and eye-colour, and finally a lower case 'v' for Variants. All components are separated by a space. The relevant codes are:
