That's odd. On my system, it (calibre) renders the html as expected (in the Book Details as well as the viewer's metadata). The only way I can see the 'raw' characters is by switching to the source tab in calibre's metadata editor. *shrugs*
EDIT: Actually, I think I know what's going on. You can enter the html directly into Sigil's metadata editor and and it will take care of xml escaping the data in the OPF file. If you entered xml escaped html into Sigil's metadata editor, that explains what you're seeing. You're ending up with a double-escaped mess. You should only worry about xml escaping if you edit your ePubs manually (no Sigil). My bad for not being clear.
