This is actually easy to explain.

After the trone was shattered, as we remember, its anti-magic effect stopped working completely. So those shards by themselves didn't affect magic at all.

But, apparently Starswirl devised some kind of spell to reactivate them in a specific way, and get that desired anti-teleportation effect. He levitated those shards before applying that reactivation spell.
