She is beautiful!

But, no Persian at all. I see no evidence of this.

She appears to be a domestic short hair, Calico. A bit more plush than most short hair cats but since her tail isn't very furry nor does she seem to have paws with long fur on them, I feel confident calling her short haired.

Most cats are no breed nor any mixture of a breed much as they may look like one. The general population of cats contains nearly every possible look you find in purebred cats.

Glad you found each other!

The somewhat shortish nose hints there MAY be some distant ancestry. As they say in Polish: perhaps the fifth dishwater after Yelly-O :)

She's a lovely girl!

I would describe her as a tortoiseshell and white domestic longhair. You can also describe her color as calico.

I'm not seeing a strong resemblance to either of those breeds you mentioned. The vast majority of cats are not any particular breed.

Looking at her face she does look 1/2 Persian, either her Mother or Father was Persian.
