Sorry for the late response. Actually, I originally wrote
describe-font and font-info for debugging fontset facility,
and forgot about them once they became unnecessary. :-(
They are not a public API (as far as I know they are not
documented in info).

Not exactly. (assq 'font (frame-parameters)) will return a
fontset instead of font. In that case, describe-font
extract an ASCII font of the fontset, and calls font-info
with that font.
In addtion, font-info returns nil if Emacs has not yet
opened any font with NAME.
