The Isis Adventure

I just received my Tessarisis. When I rotate it in my hand I hear
a rattling kind of sound inside, like there is some small object
in there rolling around. Is this normal?

Yes Very Normal

Whew! Thanks.

I got my gold Tess today, and I'm hearing the rattling as well, like something came loose. I definitely do not hear this noise with the black one. Kind of strange and a bit frustrating since my black one was misassembled (wheel wasn't pushed in correctly), so I was hoping to have the gold one as a point of reference. Now I'm not sure if both are capable of opening or which one is "correct" (the black one's wheels seem to have less play, at least on a couple).

Once you know the Key difference between the black-gold SE version and the gold-blue standard version, these noises will make perfrect sense.
I'm sure both of Horshu's will be openable the behaviour of the wheels change depending on what you have done to them previously so the sequence is important.
