Does a armchair like this exist?

I need a new chair for the lounge. I have a budget of up to £600 ish

I crochet and embroider a lot so it can not have a lot in terms of arms However I also want it to be comfortable. to sit in and I want to be able to put my feet up. Having said that I like a rather upright seating position I am not good with chairs you can slouch in.

In an ideal world I would buy a Vitra Eames chair However, I don't have a spare 6K to spend.

I like more Scandinavian in style and clean lines. I have pondered about a replica of an Egg chair (Arne Jacobsen) but not sure about the arms.

I do not want a rocking chair. (they make me motion sick)
I might get along with a swivel chair if it is a " reluctant" swivel but the ones that move all the time does not work for me at all.

I tried snuggler at my local JL but it's not comfortable and also it's a bit sparse looking.

Something like this Recliner is not at all what I am looking for (as I suspect this style may be suggested) it's too low and laid back and I am not keen on the look of it.

I have considered perhaps getting a loveseat as I then will be ok with the arms and there is space for this in the area of the lounge I need the chair for. I have just not seen any I like.

I know this might be a tall order but hoping there are other people like me out there who knows where to go.

I have this one (I crochet a lot too), it’s very upright and comfy. I opted not to have the recliner built in as I can’t lay back. If you opt to not have the recliner it still have the inside structure so it isn’t slouchy

I use a foot stool with it

@TheCanyon have you ever used that company? I worry with replicas about the quality.

@CatToddlerUprising thank you but that style is not the sort I am looking for. I can see how it will be great for crochet though :)
