"A redeeming quality, especially one that compensates for one's shortcomings."

"A quality that makes up for other generally negative characteristics; redeeming feature."

Example: Think if someone mentioned your significant other and said, "man, her butt is huge." Then I came in to defend her and said, "yeah, but her butt is her only saving grace." That would surely connotate she has no other redeemable aesthetic qualities minus her huge butt. Would you thank me for compliments towards her?
I may have used the wrong phrase. English is not my first language, thanks for the lesson. If you want my apology, you have it.
