Well, it doesn't make much sense. Usually the word "but" is used for a contradiction, such as "that car is new, but it's already breaking down". The "faded" doesn't match up with "ours" very well, for obvious reasons. I would say "The area rug is ours and it's faded." or, even better, "that faded rug is ours" or some close version thereof.
Hope this helps:)

That's fine. You can write it as "The area rug that we own is faded" if you like.

That area rug is our's, but it is (or it's) faded.
