a diamond in the rough
Someone or something with potential or talent but lacking training or polish. The idiom refers to the fact that diamonds found in nature are rough and uneven. They must be cut and polished to bring out their true beauty. Also, 'a rough diamond'. A person of exceptional character or potential but lacking some polish and refinement. eg, "Jack is intelligent and trustworthy but lacks manners—he will be as hard to cut as a rough diamond". [Early 1600s]
