This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
Is there a clean way to get the description of a custom field? outside of accessing the db directly i mean.
I need this to build a css table, for the lefthand labels.

Solution:
Yes, you are right, the custom field settings is stored in the table wp_options, field slug is "wpcf-fields", you can get it the field description using the PHP codes you mentioned above:
$fields=get_option( "wpcf-fields" ); $description=$fields['produkt-titel-tabelle']['description'];
