Morphology
The meaning 'beauty that is natural and unrefined' is directly derived from combining 'raw' (natural, unprocessed) with 'beauty' (a pleasing quality), so a learner who knows both words can infer the phrase. This adjective+noun composition follows a straightforward, cross-linguistically common pattern (modifier describing the quality of the noun), making the expression immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Raw beauty gives the image of something that is still raw and shows its beauty, like a rocky coast or an unpolished face. That's why it means 'beauty that is striking and not changed or smoothed'.
