10 a rough diamond

(a rough diamond (амер. a diamond in the rough))

человек, обладающий достоинствами, но не имеющий внешнего лоска; грубоватый, но хороший человек [букв. неотшлифованный алмаз]

Yes, I like him. I suppose a journalist would say he is a rough diamond. He's downright, even rude from our standards, but genuine. And there's a real sensibility under his mannerisms. (R. Aldington, ‘All Men Are Enemies’, part I, ch. VII) — Да, он мне нравится. Какой-нибудь журналист назвал бы его неотшлифованным алмазом. Он очень прямой и, по нашим понятиям, даже грубоватый человек, но вполне искренний, и за этой его напускной грубостью скрывается настоящая отзывчивость.

‘But he is rude,’ said Mrs Parke, ‘Truly he is a rude man. I do not myself care for him.’ ‘Come, come, my dear! A rough diamond, but sound at heart.’ (P. H. Johnson, ‘Night and Silence Who is Here?’, ch. XII) — - Но доктор Тьеполо грубиян, - сказала миссис Парк. - Настоящий грубиян. Я лично не люблю его. - Ну, ну, моя дорогая! Конечно, он человек неотесанный, но сердце у него доброе.
