Sw St 1 is a compact and possibly young planetary nebula which has been recently observed at infra red (Aitken et al., 1979) and radio (Kwok et al., 1981) wavelengths. In the 8-13 μm region, a silicate emission feature is observed, suggesting that the nebular envelope is oxygen rich. The high emission measure determined from the radio observations implies a large value for the electron density.
