| Other names: | Dark Burmese, sable |
|---|---|
| Genetics: | non-agouti plus two copies of the Burmese gene, plus any combination of albino and Himalayan at the c-locus (chch, chc, cc). The chch version is preferred, the versions with the albino gene will lack dark enough body and points. |
| Description: | To be a warm dark otter brown with subtle darker points on the feet, tail, face, and ears. Devoid of dinginess, silvering, or patches. Contrast between points and body colour not to be overstated. Any suggestion of black in the points to be penalised. Eyes black. |
| Status: | This colour is unstandardised in the UK and some US clubs with the name sable Burmese. |
