Hey all––I'm building a blanket chest and am trying to figure out the best hinge to use so that when closed, the lid sits level with the sides and back of the chest, like this one here from another furniture retailer:

This chest has a piano hinge, and as you can (maybe) see from the image, the knuckles are visible when the lid is closed. I'd like to avoid this if possible, so I'm wondering if that rules out the use of butt hinges. Does anyone here know of/have experience using a hinge that would lend itself well to being installed with one leaf on the back edge of the lid and one on the inside face of the chest? Thanks y'all!
