Hi @grazia72, those hinges aren't anything fancy, you can do a google search for "secretary hinges" to find something similar.

Thank you! We did use lid supports for ours though it likely would have been nicer to use butler hinges. They are serving their purpose and the kids are able to use the space for homework.
