marredness

The state of being marred or spoilt.

But the feeling would be much stronger in the case of the marred Visage of Jesus, for the marredness of that Visage is to the Christian a part of its beauty.

I grew familiar with it by dawn-light and candlelight, to value its wan marredness more than beauty, to search for and to find in it that mother-pity which is the gift of so many childless women, and supremely the gift of such as have forsworn marriage from high and selfless motives.

Of a person, the state of being marred or cosseted.

I believe it's nowt nobbut their mardness an' their way o' livin ut causes these New York dolls to be so mich like faded waxwork, ut's been melted down for any sort of a face, fro' a queen to a mermaid.
