Those are somme neat looking pieces! The cross pin looks like its part of a marksmanship medal, is anything marked on the back?
The keychain (trolleycar?) is probably from the late 1950’s – early 1960’s, based on the keyring part.
I’m guessing that the earrings and the cameo are from the same era, and are copies of earlier pieces.
The clown with balloons pin I have absolutely no idea about, except it looks like it’s gold plated over a base metal. It’s definitely costume jewelry; maybe from the 40’s?
No doubt there are stories behind these pieces (especially the cross).
Enjoy them, and think of your grandmother every time you wear them!

are there any stamps at all on the back of the clown pin/cameo?
Also, with older pieces it always helps to see the back of the piece. You can tell a lot from the way the pin/closures are. The cameo could be plastic but also real shell, impossible to tell from a photo, but you should be able to find that out yourself as plastic is rather warm and light and shell is cooler and heavier. If the cameo frame is gold or at least gold filled that shows you that it is a better piece.
I agree with the previous poster, the clown brooch is a neat older costume piece. Have a good look even with a magnifier, sometimes the manufacturer’s names are really tiny.

It’s really very pretty and old. Don’t give it up. It may be worth some money. I don’t know where she may have gotten it from but it’s pretty.
