How would you explain “colt-limbed” and “diamond-cut” in the context?
The man sitting opposite him was delusional, if not actually unhinged. It was an impossibility akin to two identical snowflakes that this whey-faced, leporine man could have sprung from the same genetic pool as the bronze-skinned, colt-limbed, diamond-cut beauty that had been Lula Landry.
How would you explain “colt-limbed” and “diamond-cut” in the last sentence?
Thanks!

colt-limbed = slender legs/hands, like a young horse.
diamond-cut - very precise in shape, like a diamond.
